Secondary air pump, GaryG and others

Hi Guys,
I had posted here on the board a while ago becuase I wanted to disable the secondary air pump in my 96' 900S convertible. It still works, but makes noises and is rather useless. So following the recommenation here and removed the relay C and closed the vacuum hose that controls the secondary air valve. The last 200 miles no CEL but today it went on. Had the codes read at Autozone and P0411 shows up. Problems with the secondary air system. As far as I understood others here on the board this is an operation done by a few and no one had problems with CEL.
Now my questions?
Have I done anything wrong? I have not removed the hoses going from the exhaust manifold to the valve.
How does the car/valve detect the air flow?
Shall I bite the bullet and just resemble the SAI again? Somehow that is against my honor :-) or is there any other way to permanetely shut the system down and NOT get a CEL?
Thanks for your helpful input, as always
Markus
