Default AEM Twin Fire 30-2821

Can someone please answer this Question;
WHAT DOES THE LITTLE RED LIGHT ON THE SIDE OF THE BOX DO??? Is this Light suppose to; Light up, Blink, or do NOTHING?
On there Technical Features, they say the LED is "Ignition Trigger Indicator".

I have Fuel, I have Spark, (LED does NOTHING)the Engine will NOT start(not even Caugh)!
The motor is in Excellent condition 180 in all 4. I'm 100% sure my Wiring is Correct.

I think the problem is the Spark is so Weak, the Plugs are IMMEDIATELY Fouled out

The light should light up when the box is making a spark. If the spark isnt hot enough, it wont light that light.

In the atmosphere, that weak spark will light easily as there is no pressure. In the cylinder, there is compression and pressure and it wont be able to bridge the gap...no boom

I grounded the Twin Fire to a Clean Chassis location and power is from the Alternator, as the Battery is located in the back Seat area...
Could this ground location be a problem? MUST it be Grounded at the Battery?

ignition on the red light should be constantly on no flash ... now i changed my ground after i blew the 15amp fuse to the constant 12v. now the red light dims off,and the fuse doesn't blow. anyone have a idea on what is going on ? im trying to sync the timing but im not going to start the engine with the twin fire like this. ... constant 12v and ground is directly to the battery now
