Look at air intake tube, make sure there are no tears or splits , this will give bad readings to the ecm, is there a check engine light on???

While trying to start my 2008 saturn vue, the key turns but nothing happens and then it locks up the ignition, no power to electrical system either.

there is usually a resistor built into the actual guage that smooths out the signals from the fuel sender unit , not sure if you will be able to repair to this level , time and money might be better spent on a new gauge

Code 37 is torque converter clutch solenoid failure. Transmission wont shift in and out of overdrive.

This will help.

Thanks.

make sure you have no hoses on the engine that fell off listen for a hissing at idle. If all ok and you checked for codes which should be done before any parts are replaced then the most likely cause is the Idle Air Control Valve. (IAC). IAC's usually wont set a code.

I would take it in and have them do a diagnostic on it, sounds like the cam shaft sensor to me.

Yup. The throttle body connectors have a history of failing on these cars. Replace the throttle body and the wire connectors that go to it, and you're back in business. Not terribly difficult and you can get the parts from any dealer. Saturn actually has a bulletin out on this problem but they won't cover it unless you're under warranty - no recall for this.

check the cranshft position sensor and the idle position sensor.
