Dreaded S-AWC warning light help

So I have been searching through all kinds of post about the problems with awc pump and cold weather but have not been able to find the answer to my problem.

I get the warning light whenever I do a hard pull and it stays on till I shut the car off and restart it. My tunner says it comes on when he hits max tq when car was on the dyno. Weather has been in the 70s and this problem only seemed to start happening once I got to my current power level, (370tq) drove it all winter no problems and it was in the 30s during the winter. There are plenty of people making way more power so is there something I missed that I need to do?

-reflash?
-sensor gone bad?
-fuse?
-hopefully not a pump

Any ideas would be helpfull

And if this has already been figured out a link to the post would be great.

Thanks in advance

Torque/airflow limiters and/or hitting 29psi+

Both of which can (and should) be tuned out

I am hitting 29psi, I will ask my tuner about the torque and airflow limiters.

Thanks for your help.

So does that mean it can't be tuned out since I'm hitting the 29psi?
