    What is the pressure gauge reading when pump switches on and what is the pressure when the pump switches off? Is any water being used?

    If it is doing this continually, whether water is being used or not, then a bad foot valve or check valve is the likely culprit. If it only does this when water is being used, then you look at the pressure tank diaphragm.
