I ordered a float switch assembly and do not think that will solve the problem, since the float looks different on line and there is a space when the shaft of the float goes into the switch assembly. Is there suppose to be a gasket inside the float to prevent water going down the assembly shaft.

Check the tub, you will probably find a crack in the tub. Sand it and clean it and put some silicone cement on it.
