Ok, so would a new switch fix the heat problem or is there a way of getting around it (rewiring it or something)? Or is the lack of heat a different problem all together? Thanks for your help!

No there was still no heat. Ok I just unplugged the 3 wires on the switch and turned it on, the empty water light had gone off yay! Thanks. But unfortunately there was still no heat at all.

Hey again, Ok just ran your test with a good 400ml of water and it pumped up the pipe and into the cup straight away and emptied the chamber pretty quickly.
