1. The Sleep Timer
   The product enters sleep mode if it is not used for a period of time. You can adjust the time period before sleep mode, but increasing the time reduces the product's energy efficiency.

Its a stripped gear. Usually one of the gears that moves the fuser.

On the back of the Epson Perfection 1660 Photo there is a lever that shows a lock and a unlock by where you plug in the wire to the computer. It must be in the unlocked position otherwise it will make that loud clicking noise and not work. Hope this helps.

Your belt is worn and stretched and so it is slipping on the motor drive shaft. That is why it is noisy and smells like burning rubber. You simply need to replace the belt. You can get replacement belts here:

Replacement Vacuum Belts

It is normal for your Epson scanner to produce noise on startup as it calibrates the motor that moves the scan mechanism when powered on. But if this is too loud than normal, it means that there may be already a problem with the motor and must be replaced if it wouldn't give out quality scans. Otherwise, it is working normally.

I would try changing the belt. Even though the belt may look fine it can be stretched or worn and that can cause loud noises. You can get dyson belts here:

The belt is located at the back of the appliance.

To remove belt you have to remove a panel at the back, on some model you remove top panel first.

The belt does not make loud noise. Loud noise when spinning is usually caused by bad drum bearing, located at the back of the drum.

i recently experienced the same issue. it can be your tensioner pulley or your water pump see the belts are connected to the pulleys and sometimes get worn out and need to be replaced. especially on a older car see a mecanic

Check if you have a toggle lock at the back of your scanner, when you are facing the back of it, its on the right hand side near the tpu cable. toggle that 3x and make sure it on the UNLOCK position.
