My sister's Kenmore Dryer MN 110.76902690 makes a buzzing noise (much
like an electric buzzer) when I press the start button.

There is a decal on the door that says the dryer will make a noise
(unspecified) if you try to start it and the lint trap is full. The lint
trap isn't full, but, looking into the cavity it goes in, there is a lot
of lint that has escaped past the lint trap over the years. I tried to
get it out and could only get some of it.

The dryer won't start, noise is there.

Is it likely that even with the trap clean, there is enough lint in the
ductway that the sensor is showing a full filter? Can I clean this part
of the duct easily?

The noise is a buzzing, and I wouldn't consider it a stuck motor noise,
but could this be it?

Any other suggestions, things to check?

repairclinic.com has some really good troubleshooting techniques
and videos. I recently used their videos to narrow down a problem
with my dryer to the exact component in less than a 1/2 hour. All
it took was a meter and some basic tools.

While they may not have a video specifically for your model, the
ones they have can often be used as reference.

Here is the link to your dryer. Good luck!
