Update in case anyone else experiences the same issue with this machine.

I further tested the float and sensor switch (this model is a reed switch) with a multimeter. I found that the reed switch was always closed, causing the pump to run constantly and the machine to display the empty tank message. I could have soldered a new reed switch, but decided to replace the full float and switch. I received an updated part design, which has been fitted. This has now solved the issue, and the machine is back working as expected.

Thanks Dave, interestingly the pump is always running in cycle and float is moving as expected, but if I push the float up to the top of its holder where the magnet would make close contact, it does not trigger the empty water tank message, which I would expect.
