Kenmore dryer makes the ticking noise but when we push the button to start the dryer it wont start. What should we look at?

Please check your Thermo fuse
and ticking noise should not be there unless the dryer is on which means that your timer is acting up

It wont start and is making a grinding noise from the timer

HI. the timer mechanism is fused. This will require you to purchase a new timer. The current timer mechanism is damaged at this point. It will not initiate the proper sequential commands in this state.

When you push start button, it makes noise but won't start.

This is a A.C. hum that you are hearing. this is a warning sign. You are experiencing motor failure. the actual windings inside of the motor are losing their potential to hold an even current due to breakage. the shutdown is a safety feature built in the control panel to prevent electrical spark/fire.

Dyer was grinding, then won't run

Sounds to me like you motor has froze up. Is there any smell coming from the dryer? The fuse would not cause this. A fuse would make the dryer do nothing when you hit the start button.
