supercharger LED

hey i just got my gze running... its still in the levin front cut... it runs well but the sc led is always on... i've read b4 that it shouldnt be on at idle and when the engine is not under load so im a bit worried... could the sc be hammered or could there be a clutch problem?
i've looked at the wires around the sc but they all look factory...
there is no aftermarket switches on the dash either...
cheers

could be the computer showing a fault with the supercharger!! not 100% sure but it possible, can you bridge out the diagnosis box and see what fault code comes up!!! worth a try

Short your diagnostics connector, and read the engine fault codes. Search the internet there are pretty concise instructions on how to do this everywhere.

Dunno about the Levin but in my AW11 SC the light means that there is positive intake manifold pressure. (Comes on at 0 or higher). Just attach a boost guage. That will tell you if you're SC is making boost.
Another test for your clutch if you think there is something suss with that... hardwire the clutch so it is always on (make sure you use a .5 amp fuseable link) straight from the battery to the clutch if you like.
Forget the SC Led... it means bugger all. Your SC could be spinning at -12 but stupidly the light only comes on at 0.
Dunno if any of this makes sense but thar u go.
