That crackling sound likely means something has been burnt out or shorted out. However, to check if this is the case, open up your laptop and try to turn it on without the battery plugged in, with it connected to the charger. If it works, you need a new battery.

That crackling sound likely means something has been burnt out or shorted out. However, to check if this is the case, open up your laptop and try to turn it on without the battery plugged in, with it connected to the charger. If it works, you need a new battery, and the crackling sound is from a bad or swelling battery.
Are there any visual signs of burns on the motherboard? Is the battery swelling? (IF THE BATTERY IS SWELLING UNPLUG IT IMMEDIATELY AND TAKE THE BATTERY OUT OF THE LAPTOP. TAKE IT TO HOME DEPOT. THEY HAVE A PLACE TO DISPOSE DYING OR DANGEROUS BATTERIES. BE VERY CAREFUL WHILE HANDLING THE BATTERY, AS IF IT SWELLS TOO MUCH OR IS PUNCTURED OR DAMAGED, IT MAY CATCH FIRE AND/OR EXPLODE.)
Did anything happen to it while you were taking it apart for service? Did you drop a part or scratch anything?
