Check for other blown fuses. 80A is a LOT of current.

I have a 2000 kia sportage wont start unless jumped off. Runs until you kill then wont start without a jump replaced battery and alternator i turn lights on a loud buzz under steering wheel

Check your new battery if it is charged up, sounds like something is draining your battery, or your alternator is not charging properly, check your charging system

I'm trying to start my 2005 kia sportage and it's not starting. There is no clicking or anything just silence. What is it? the battery, starter, alternator?

Look for loose or corroded battery cables first. You may have a light on too that is draining the battery. Look in the glove box and make sure the light goes out when the door is closed. Same thing if there is a light under the hood.

I'm trying to start my 2005 kia sportage and it's not starting. There is no clicking or anything just silence. What is it? the battery, starter, alternator? About two weeks ago it was doing the same...

May be something as simple as corroded battery terminals or clamps.
Grab the battery cables and try to rotate both clamps a little.
If it then tries to start, then it is time to pick up a terminal/clamp cleaner from any parts store.

Remove the negative (black cable) first and clean both the clamp inside and the terminal outside, then reconnect- negative terminal last

It may be wise to buy also a small device which uses a 9V battery to connect from clamp to clamp (or plug into the lighter/power socket) unless you have the code available to regain access to any stereo you have; most go into a anti-theft 'safe' mode.

I have no power to my blower motor on my 2005 kia sportage and the fuse is not blown . i tryed my blower motor directly to my battery and the blower works finecan you help me please

You have a blower motor relay or a blower motor resister that could be bad.The relay is part # 1R2122 $20.79 at rockauto.com. You could jump the relay to see if that's your problem. The Resister is # RU474 $42.89. I would start with the relay. Your switch could also be bad. A simple 12V circuit tester will tell you if you are getting power to the relay terminals.

Won't stay running

Check the voltage while its running, should be around 14 volts, if the alternator is working right, charge the battery over night, crank it up and pull the terminals off the battery, it should stay running by itself without the battery, if the alternator is charging....sounds like a charging problem.
