Is your SECURITY light flashing? If so, you have a V.A.T.S. problem. VATS stands for Vehicle Anti Theft System. Try getting a new ignition key made because the resistance value has probably changed in the one you have. If that doesn't do it you'll need to get a VATS bypass.

This is a big problem I also had the same problem with my 1999 Buick Regal LS The plastic sockets get too hot and have to be replaced $40.. a pop I pulled the running light fuse several years ago and have not had any more problems I would rather have turn signals than running lights

Mass air flow , crank sensor . I wouldn't discount anything . Having a scan tool that can view engine sensor data would be a great help too , testing fuel pressure and flow and back pressure test the exhaust .
058 Engine Hard to Start or No Start Lean Fuel Condition
055 Engine Hard to Start or No Start Scan Data for EGR
057 Engine Hard to Start or No Start Ignition Module Test
007 Catalytic Converter Testing

one of two things the transmission fluid pump needs replaced or the transmission filter is clogged replace it if the pump is bad a tranamission rebuild will need to be done also make sure your coolant is not low on antifreeze

A couple of possibilities. 1st, check to see that the fuel pump is working. When you turn the key to on position (not all the way to crank the engine over), can you hear the pump? You should hear a humming sound from the gas tank . The fuel in the tank actually keeps the fuel pump from overheating. It is possible the pump is shot. It would be a good idea to change the fuel filter, as it may be plugged up from sediment from the bottom of the tank.

I have a 99 Buick Regal and it too dies out, but only when I use my turn signals. Sometimes, when trying to start the car...the dash lights would flicker and you can hear some sort of electrical ticking sound. As of today, my car will not start (5/24/09) it hadn't turned over since yesterday. After a process of elimination and searching the net, I think I need a new ignition switch. You may need one as well.

Easy Way to check and KNOW for yourself --- Look Under rear at Where wheels Connect see if it has a TIE ROD and See If it has struts of Shocks TIE RODS & OR Struts Take Alighnment Shocks do not
