get a new front plate seal turn off electrical supply & the cold water main, open a hot tap to release water pressure remove the micro switch bracket, unscrew the old seal (hex nut) screw in new one, refit microswitch bracket turn on water & electrickery and test job done

There is an o-ring inside the gland nut. You may have temporarily stopped the leak, but you would be better changing it. Follow the instructions above, its an easy job.

do you think the diaphragm should be changed also
