There has never been an indicator for the Power button being engaged on the instrument cluster. You have mistaken some other indicator for the power button being on. I suspect you are referring to the M drive indicator.

Clearly you need more power otherwise the light would be brilliant and luminous. I would recommend and centrifugal supercharger.

Do you at least notice the extra 40whp? jk, that was a funny question OP. I'm very surprised no one came off the top rope on this one.
