That looks like the pressure switch. There is a little diaphragm underneath that switch. It gets out of shape eventually and leaks. Especially if you run very hot water through it. You can buy pressure switches at Steambrite.

bro, a squirt of jean bedazzling glue for the win, dontcha know
I'm going to apply "gasket maker caulk" around the leaks. Or use a different pump I have in my bone yard.

This is the second Mytee extractor I got from Magic Wand in Reno that had issues straight out of the box; Striking out 100% of the time. :eekk:

Both customer support websites have failed to help me solve this issue.
