As for that guys mil being on aem can be programed to do that. He needs to check settings. That can be fixed. Mine comes on when I go over 8k
My injector 9 output (immobilizer light) is turned off and it still does it. It goes out when the ignition is on and I can turn it on and off by configuring outputs, but for some reason when the ecu is off it is pulling a ground there. This is a series 2. Anybody else's series 2 do this?

Fixed the battery drain issue. Installed a 4 prong relay to supply the pump and controller with ignition on only! Make sure you guys do this if you have this kit!!!

Bump from the dead...

From the below wiring diagram you're saying the "Arm Swith (Yellow)" connected to accessory doesn't disconnect the power loop for the motor/controler when it's not powered?

Yes sir! Ridiculous design! You have to put a relay to cut the positive power lead to the controller and the pump otherwise it draws on your battery! Haven't had any drain issues since installing a relay!

WOW that is rediclous. How old is your kit? I know they have made some changes recently so they may have addressed the issue.

I will take a look tomorrow and see if/how much current it's drawing when powered off.

Mine is only drawing 13.28mA while powered off which is peanuts. Do you remember how much yours was drawing?

It's possible they made some updates.
