Oh you are in for some fun. Not a pretty job, long gloves
(old dishwashing gloves) would help.

Most likely the float on the unit is stuck. Its going to
take a little work to free it up. Otherwise bite the bullet and
just buy another one. Depending on use, they last about 10 years or
so...

You can always keep the old as a backup up.

P.S. New ones arent very cheap either....

Thanks,
