Well it's my day off today. I woke up at 5:30 stayed in bed until six. That half hour I could hear the sump pump kick off and on numerous times. My son came up from the basement at 7:30 and said, "Dad the basement is flooded".
Luckily he told me in time and that I was off today by chance. The sump pump switch malfunctioned. I was able to get it going for now and spent 90 minutes sucking up the water which was only 1/8" deep. Didn't look like much but I sucked up 30 gallon with the shop vac and used the squeegee to push the rest toward the drain after the level in the sump went down so the drain would accept the excess water.

It will be faster to switch out the pump that it would be to switch out the elect float switch. If you don't hear from me by tonight send a search party...
