Live well pump turns on by itself?

Folks - I have a slightly different Livewell problem.... it kicks on by itself in choppy / bouncy seas. This makes storage in the livewell of anything like sweatshirts and jackets a bad idea - especially when we discover them floating in sea water. The dash baitwell switch remains off - neutral position, neither up nor down. I can fix the problem by closing the raw water intake valve but I am concerned the pump will run dry and burn up. Is this a common Livewell problem? Any known fix? Baitwell pump and light work fine when I manually move the switch up or down. Thanks, Tom
