The Filter valve ( on top of the tank ) has a multipart gasket inside it. That gasket has been damaged. It needs to be replaced as water is now not being restricted to outflow within the return port... there is now water bypassing within it to the waste port. The gasket is designed to keep the water only within the port required for the position the valve is placed in.
On the filter valve near the handle, you will see a Part number. That will provide you access to a diagram for that particular valve, Then locate the gasket within it and replace it.
Put a ball valve on line we do that all the time to fix a leaky multiport

The capacitor is probably bad. It's under the cover on the side of the motor, Take a look and smell it. A motor shop has them, or Grainger

32' round by how deep? Flow rate is how you size a filter so with total gallons you can calculate how many per minute will add up to the whole pool being turned over is 6-8 hours. The pump and filter are then sized for that required flow...Assuming the pool is an above ground ~4' average depth then total gallons would be about 24,000 gallons. For an 8 hour turnover you would need about 50 gallons per minute. The 210T, T for top mount, is designed to handle up to 44 gallons per minute and turn over a 21,000 gallon pool in 8 hours or a 26,000 gallon pool in 10.
What that basically means is that using a 210 on a pool 32 x 4 would be pushing it. It will work but you will end up backwashing more frequently which raises the overall cost of running the pool. If it is not to late a 24" filter would be better; especially if you have periods of time in your pool season where heavy amounts of debris such as pollen get into the water. A 21" filter won't handle any over a normal filtration load.

You
need to replace the gasket inside the valve to stop the leak. The gasket kit is
pretty cheap and not too hard to replace. We can try to get you the part number
if you can post the valve brand and model. You should be able to call any local
pool store with the brand of filter and get the part you need without any
trouble.
