There are a few things that can cause a clicking.. first is valve tapping which is when the valves become a little loose and the noise you hear is when the gap is taken up and the metal taps, second is that the bearings in your water pump may be starting to fail, and third might just be that your belt has a bad spot and clicks as it passes a certain pulley.

2006 silverado and when you turn the ac on theres a clicking up by the radiator and clues thanks?

Look at your AC pump, and start your motor and turn on your AC. Listen for the clicking coming from the pump. That is you clutch cycling on and off for the AC. If that is the noise you are hearing then your good to go. If not then you will have to look else where, BUT BE CAREFUL when the engine is running.
