1st off your model numbers are not correct.
Shurflo 3008-403-144-------that would be the Classic Model #2008 (your OEM pump) which has been discontinued for several years
Shurflo 3008-101-E65........that is the Revolution Model #4008 (replacement for the 2008 model)
On/OFF switch getting HOT to touch........remove main DC fuse for water pump and pull switch to check connections....loose contacts/bad switch. Shouldn't get that HOT
As for pump not turning off.
Is water heater FULL?
Did you bleed all of the air out of hot/col sides at each faucet/shower & toilet cold line? (outside shower...washer if you have)
Leaks........
Any water dripping out of 'city water' connection.internal check valve leaking
Any water dripping from T&P Relief Valve Water heater (Outside compartment)
Outside shower dripping
Drips/wet spots ....fittings, connections, crimps (can be tough to find....use newspaper/TP around/under suspects to check for wet)'
The 4008 pump uses a internal bypass valve....if discharge pressure is higher then bypass pressure pump will just run
Down/Dirty--Off the Cuff 4008 Model adjustment method
