2020 SX190 will not crank

[Annaliese]

I changed the battery because nothing was coming on, not even the blower. New battery - Blower turns on and all accessories except for the radio. But won’t crank. Checked the safety lanyard, the hatch, nothing. Now every time I try to turn the battery on I notice the 30 amp fuse blows. What is going on?

Have you checked to see if when you installed the battery that you have the connections correct? Positive to positive, negative to negative, a crossed wired battery can cause fuses to blow. Check those connections, it can be dark back there but I would not go further until I checked the connections.

Would have started there as well but interesting that blower and acc. Were working before ignition.
