The clicking sound your hearing is in the gas valve and or ignitor that are located near your dryers motor. It sounds as if you have a problem with the motor or motor switch itself. This can be repaired but the repair most often requires the replacement of the motor itself.

Wont turn over

When you say "makes the sound like it wants too", is that the starter motor making the sound, or just a click?

Your heading said "Won't turn over", which means the starter doesn't turn at all.

If it's makes just a single click each time the starter button is pushed, that usually is the starter relay, a $15-$20 part.

Belt wont start on a brand new Sole F80. Motor

It sound like the motor control board is the culprit. Unplug unit then remove shroud then find the 2 leads that connects the motor to the motor control board disconnect them then plug in unit and see if the display blackout after programing the display then hitting start.

Wont start

Is the motor running but the tub not spinning? You can tell by feeling for air movement out the exhaust after you start it or by listening to the dryer (put your ear against it and listen for a humming sound).

If motor is running your belt is broken and will have to be replaced.
