I just replaced a broken dryer belt and re-assmebled the dryer. It works now, but there is a ticket sound coming from the timer when the door is closed and the timer dial turned on, but the dryer is not turned on yet. The ticking goes away if I push the start button and the dryer starts, if I put the timer dial to off, or if I open the door to the dryer.

I am worried that the clicking might be unsafe, anyone know what this is from?

Hummm is a weird problem but try first leveling the Dryer, sometime an unlevel dryer makes the frame bend a little and maybe the mechanism is a little push by the weight. Try that first.

Thanks for the suggestion. The Dryer is level, and the ticking remains.

Can u check opening the door, the model of the Dryer and the brand??
Thanks

It is a Kenmore 70 Series. The sticker inside the door has been removed, so I do not know the model number.

That is normal on whirlpool/kenmore dryers to do that. There is nothing to worry about.

I have a Kenmore Dryer Mod.# 11068422700. I recently replaced the timer and thermo fuse. Here is my problem. After timer cycle... the unit shuts off... however the timer continues thro air dry cycle and delicate... asthe timer is going through the delicate cycle it lights up the heating element... if I manually turn the timer to off the element goes out
