Thanks spaceghost. The battery has been charged and de-celled repeatedly lately as I'm not under warranty anymore, and I'm on my own fixing it. The crank sensor isn't coming up on the scan tool any more, but I found out why it was> turned out that I didn't dig deep enough- Both my timing belts were shredded, and the crank sensor had a chunk of timing belt stuck in it. I had to pull the passenger front wheel, brake caliper, splash guard, both timing covers, both accessorie belts, pulleys, pumps, wires, this and that and luckily I have a Kia connection and got the book, so timing and re-install was more accurate. Now, P340, cam position sensor still comes up, so I'm thinking broken exaust cam since the code went away (after replacing the cps before and rechecking), and the motor will turn over twice then act like its fighting it-self, but will not run. The coils and the plug wires pass the book's check methods but no spark (cps related I think), the fuel pump works but no fuel, all fuses are good, I don't know about the relays though, and now I'm going to make sure the started is good (easy check up in town at autozone). Back to the book I guess, I'll keep updating- Kiasapissed

I had the same problem. The crankshaft sensor has to be replaced. Before taking your vehicle to kia make sure to test to see if your battery is fully operational. Kia will try to charge you for a new battery when they change that part under warranty. The due pick up 25% of the battery cost. They may even change your timing belt along with another. If so, ask what other belts do they have to remove in that area and purchase new ones your self since they have the vehicle torn down at that point.
