Sounds like the water valve. If you pull the plug and hot water is still coming in, the valve is faulty. When warm is selected, both valves are open. It could be that the pressure from the cold water inlet is helping to close the hot water side when they both shut off simultaneously when level switch opens.

The valve sounds like the best bet, but make sure the hot water is getting pumped out ok.
