There is a fault with your electrics to the fan/switch. Get in an electrician to fix it.
------------------------------------------------------------
The switch is bad. Turn off the power to the fan in the main panel, turn off the breaker
that powers the fan. Usually if you remove the bottom cover of the fan you can see the switch. You can remove the switch and take it to a electrical supply store and they will match the switch. The wires should all be color coded so you should be able to put in back in and hook it up. Black to black, white to white.
That led is only showing that there is power to the switch and/or the light and fan fixture. You would have to check the power at the fixture to determine if it is actually in the switched feed or the fan/light assembly.
Yes it is still on and using as much power as if it was on full
If there is power to the live wire but the ceiling light is still not working, the issue may lie with a faulty light bulb, a bad connection between the wire and the fixture, or a defective switch. Try replacing the bulb first, then check the wiring connections and the switch to ensure they are functioning properly. If the problem persists, it may require further inspection by a professional electrician.
No, it is not normal for a tester to show a hot signal on a light switch when it is in the off position and there is no power going to the light it controls. This could indicate a wiring issue or a faulty switch that needs to be addressed. It is best to consult a qualified electrician to investigate further and ensure safety.
When a switch is closed the path through the circuit is continuous.
Nope, it turns off when the water is boiled.
Make sure that there is power getting to the ac clutch when the switch is jumped. If the power is there then the clutch is bad and needs to be replaced.

Because the switch has a fault and needs replacing before you waste a whole lot of energy (which you pay for).

I would check power coming off of the switch; you will have to pull the switch out of the dash to check it and if there is power there, you will need to check the wire back to find the short.
When a light fixture still has power when the switch is turned off, it could be due to a wiring issue where the switch is not properly cutting off the power supply to the fixture. This can happen if there is a faulty switch, a loose connection, or a short circuit in the wiring. It is important to have a qualified electrician inspect and repair the issue to prevent any safety hazards.
Because a switch is a 'permanent' action. A relay only completes the circuit while there is power. If there is a fault in the circuit, a switch will still allow power through, whereas a relay will break the circuit.
The load will be zero after the switch is turned off. if power is still being drawn then the switch is quite likely faulty

Getting power to motor? if so could be a bad motor if not could be bad resistor pack or bad switch
You have a short in the cluster.
