If you can see the sparking through the window, then it can only be one of three things:

Pump flow switch (left of the pump) should 'break' when pump runs:

pcb not making GV relay

GV/solenoid not operating

Assuming you have no electrical testing knowledge, you will need to have these circuits checked.
