    When did you last perform the scheduled maintenance called for in the owner's manual? Maybe there's a troubleshooting guide specific to your treadmill in there, too.

    Can you tell where the clicking seems like it is coming from? Does it seem to be random or at a consistent interval? It's probably the belt rubbing against something or touching something. The belt could be moving to one side because it's not aligned, or it could be wearing. Assuming it's coming from the belt/deck, make sure it's got the right tension and is centered and aligned. There are usually two bolts on the back that adjust each side of the roller. You can read or watch a video on the internet to see how to adjust them.
