System.Timers.Timer.Start() has a same function as System.Timers.Timer.Enabled=true; System.Timers.Timer.Stop() has a same function as System.Timers.Timer.Enabled=false;

Those 2 methods internally sets Enabled property to true or false which starts or stops the timer.

Check if you have permission to write to eventlog. You can also check for errors in eventlog.

System.Timers.Timer is not thread safe. Make sure you use it properly.
