Hello Robert, you could have a bad oil sender unit. Install an auxiliary oil pressure gauge to measure the amount of oil pressure. If reading is around 15 PSI or better at idle, change the oil sender unit.

The oil pressure switch may be defective causing false readings. If changing the switch doesnt correct the problem an oil pressure test must be performed to verify actual pressure reading.

Key won;t go into ignation on my 2002 buick park ave

It is possible that the tumblers in the ignition need lubrication. I had this problem with a boat ignition. Spray a small amount of break free, or WD 40 or graphite penetrating oil into the slot and slowly work the key gently into it. A drop of oil in the slots of the key won't hurt.

1992 Buick Park Ave. Ultra TPS problem

The code indicates the TPS is still bad and the code is usually right, but it could be a wiring issue at the TPS connector or less likely a computer issue.
To test the TPS circuit, you need to check voltage and ground from the ECM - 5v is the normal reading between the ECM reference circuit and the ECM ground circuit at the TPS connector. Checking the TPS signal circuit to the ECM requires monitoring the TPS signal on a scan tool while jumping the 5v reference and the signal circuits. The TPS reading should go from high when the circuit is jumpered to low when the jumper is removed.

My 1999 Buick Park Ave started hesitating and the CEL would flash. I would back off the accelerator and it would smooth out and the light would go off. About a month ago the car died while I was driving it...

Have you tried the reset method? Turn key to the ON position and leave it there for 10 minutes, or until the security light goes off. Then turn key to off, and back to on and start-see if it starts after letting it sit for a few minutes like that with the key in the on position.

Just had my oil changed and the check engine oil level low light is coming on . But checked it and it's not low , just on the full mark . It comes on everytime I restart the car . how do I fix that ?After...

You have to reset the check engine oil level light. The light is just a 3 month reminder that lets you know when to change your oil. You have to hold the reset button on your dash for more then 5 to 10 sec. The procedure is in the owners manual that came with the car.
