Pump continues to run

Sounds like the relay is stuck.  While running, give the panel a tap with the handle of a screwdriver.  if the pump then shuts off.  turn off the breaker and replace the relay.  Note: The relay may begin to work properly again, but will now be more susceptible to stick repeatedly now, and should be replaced.

All i can say is keep an eye on it.  Sometimes stuck breakers resolve themselves.  Meaning that the relay un-sticks itself.  If the relay had been welded (stuck), the contacts are now pitted and will likely do it again.  Just no telling when.  

 

Maybe when you leave for two week vacation?
