It depends on which version of the led panel you have. The early version
has a large power transistor behind the painted cover that turns on
power to the pump when it thinks there is water in the tank. A round
silver thing about the size of a nickel, if there you have the kind that
can disable the pump when the tank level reading is NG. Used 80/81 at
least but lots of panels have been swapped over the years.

The simple thing is to bypass the transistor and I have done so on
several early Westys that I have worked on. That way the pump always has
power available
