The dryer has one of its rows of heaters open. Open up the dryer and check the coils behind the drum. read more

SOURCE: My dryer makes a buzzing noise when I push the start button

My Hotpoint dryer is seven years old and did the exact same thing. When I got over the anger and the thought of spending 4 or 5 hundred dollars to replace it I started messing with it. I finally decided that since it buzzed when I tried to start it there was current there. The only other thing it could be was the drying cycle knob.
I held the start knob and let it buzz while I slowly turned the dryer cycle knob to the right. As I turned through each cycle it would hit "off" and the buzzing would stop and then resume as I moved past the "off " setting. On the third trip around the dryer "started" and has been working since. Maybe something got out of kilter. Apparently the problem was in the knob that controls the drying cycles.

SOURCE: Work start makes a noise when you hold the start

bad motor

SOURCE: DRYER DOES NOT START ONLY MAKES BUZZER SOUND. WHEN

sounds like a motor these Do not use a starting capacitor, they use very small Gage wire for the start windings ..You can get a new motor for about 130.00 dollars if you decide to replace it I would advise you to also order a new blower wheel ,, after time the blower wheel has a way of seizing its self onto the motor drive shaft and 90% of the time you have to destroy the blower wheel to get it off it adds about 25.00 to 30.00 more to the job but you will be glad you did
