    You could have either a stuck or a bad float switch. It will turn everything off. See: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=08lNRCwE6_U and related posts on YouTube.

    For any kind of electrical problem you will ALWAYS need to have a good meter. I recommend a digital multimeter like the Commercial Electric Digital Clamp Meter for $42.38 at Home Depot See: Commercial Electric Digital Clamp Meter-MS2002 - The Home Depot or the Klein Tools 600 Amp AC Digital Clamp Meter with Temp for $59.97 See: Klein Tools 600 Amp AC Digital Clamp Meter with Temp-CL200 - The Home Depot.
    I have the Commercial clamp meter because it can test amperage used in a circuit by any device or I can test an entire circuit in the breaker box, plus it can be used to do any kind of testing I need to do. You simply clamp the meter around any single wire carrying power to measure how many amps are being used. It is the best way to find many problems, and many times the only way. You need a good meter and you need to know how to use it. This is the only way to find electrical problems. Guessing does not work with today's complicated electrical appliances. Here are some manuals to help: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/...e%20Manual.pdf

    These will help if you use your meter.
