I have a 2005 Kia Sorento V6. When the car is not running the fan blower will switch to defrost and work properly, but after the car runs, the blower will only work in the face or across the midsection of the dash. It works in all speed but will not transfer back to the defroster. Any help appreciated.

The transfer is vacuum actuated. Check that all vacuum hoses are attached and not broken and cracked and losing vacuum to the actuator switch and motors.

Cooling fan running when car is not running and key switch is off

The cooling fan will run on some vehicles until the proper temp is achieved. It is only a problem if it does not ever turn off.

My 2005 Kia Sorento is running hot I have no idea why.

did you check the coolant level? , is a good place to start, a low coolant will make the car running hot, also check if the radiator fans are runing when the car reach the normal temperature, usually in the middle of the gauge..other than , I recommend you to take it to your mechanic to be checked for leaks in case is loosing coolant

2005 Kia Sorento only blows hot and cold air on high. Is it a blower motor resistor and if it is where is it located?

If the blower moter only works on hi speed it is the blower motor resistor that is bad. The blower motor resistor is located under the passenger side of the dash next to the blower motor. It is not necessary to remove the blower motor to change the resistor.

2004 kia sorento no heat

I had a similar problem with AC & Heater fan,it works on and off, and sometimes if the road was rough it runs, So I had to remove the fan clean it with a blower from dust and debris, then I installed it back and it is running ever since for more than a year without having to replace it.
