Its been fine for some time until the float switch had to be replaced with a different type

It looks to me like you need to raise your probe height.  It’ll do that double probe thing when it encounters the material before reaching probe height.

I would be tempted to use a switch that requires a lot less travel.

+1
Or mount it more to the right as that would shorten the travel by a lot.
Also, from experience, those switches tend to cr@p out at random and often, while some work for many years without a hiccup.

Thanks for the input.
I think he has tried a different switch problem for me is the machine is about 120 miles round trip.

He had done a backup from the button.
What's the procedure to re install.

Has he tried raising the probe height?
