Have a 2004 rendezvous and I get fuel but little spark to the plugs

I replaced the CPS and get fuel but little spark to the plugs. Could it be anti theft system?

If you have any spark at the plugs it will not be the anti-theft system. I would be looking at a failed coil/s and or distributor ignition module.. Run fault codes to check for other faults that limit the spark voltage.

2004 Buick Rendezvous. My code reader is telling me I have a cylinder 2 misfire.

You might want to try and take the number 2 cylinder spark plug out and look at it it should be a Gray or very light Brown color.
It's also possible that there's number 2 spark plug had water splashed on it and it was very hot and could have cracked the porcelain on the spark plug. Does your Buick have over a 100000 miles on it or near a 100000 miles if so they may be original spark plugs and need to be changed you can try one Thing, try changing number 2 spark plug with number one or number 3 and see if the problem moves with the spark plug, if it does the spark plug is definitely bad if it doesn't you may have to start looking at the spark plug Wires or maybe even the fuel injector but, you can do the same thing with the fuel injector change it with number 1 and see if the problem moves. Shield injectors usually just pull out of the fuel rail but be careful there's an O ring on them don't lose it it should stay on but you never know.
Anyway good luck to you

Changed the fuel pump on 2002 rendezvous and battery radio is locked and car won't start

Did you check for fuel pressure with a fuel pressure gauge before replacing fuel pump ? Did you test for spark ? Is there compression . Is the security light lit on the instrument cluster ? anti-theft system stops injectors from working if a problem is present. You changed the battery ? Battery Disconnect or Replacement Problems

Have a 2004 rendezvous and it has little spark to the spark plugs

Coil pack provides spark to plugs. I would check and or replace that. To test it you will need a Haynes manual for your car and a digital multimeter. It is not hard to do. Hope this is helpful.

My 2002 buick rendezvous will not go above 4000 rpm's. The engine loses power and feels like it is misfiring.

I would check into replacing a fuel pressure regulator its easy to install and it usually under 10 bucks.
