Car won't start

and this is why you test things before throwing parts at them , did the crackling occur before the ignition switch was replaced ? does it turn over ? (crank) do you have a starter relay ?

It has 120,564 miles the crackling got worse after ignition switch was replaced. It has a new starter relay. It won't turn over at all.

at this point it sounds like you need a qualified technician/mechanic . Not the person that has already worked on it because they should have checked for power and done some diagnosis before replacing any parts , now ask yourself is the car worth it ? with crackling coming from the ignition new parts may be damaged who knows ,

That's a very good point. Thank you. And I appreciate your respect, I often come across some men who thinks it's ok to degrade a female for these types of things. I appreciate it. Have a good day.

right , put a hammer or wrench in their hand and watch the ego fly , can't tell them nothing , that's why I work alone
