Re: 1998 kia sportage
First check all the cables. If the battery is putting out 13v and there isn't a good enough connection to carry the amperage to the starter it won't do it.
The most likely culprit is a bad starter. Gently tap on the starter a few times with a screwdriver handle. If it suddenly starts working, time for a new starter. Test the wire that goes from the switch to the starter solenoid. If the switch is failing it won't tell the starter to engage.
