It could be the battery, the starter, or worst case scenario, depending on the ticking it could be that piston arm broke and is spinning around the crank shaft.

Hi, I too recently encountered this ticking noise...although I don't know if my ticking noise is related to yours. Mine will begin at different RPMs, sometimes 2k sometimes it starts high at 4.5k. I would describe my ticking noise as a rotational tick sound and electrical. At 2k RPM it would tick very slow. As the RPMs increase so will the "Ticks per second." I thought it was coming from my dash area also..and I think its coming from the floor area next to the GAS pedal.
