Engine wont start

Engine Performance problem
1998 Buick Lesabre 6 cyl Front Wheel Drive Automatic

i got in my car and it started then I forgot something in the house so I went inside. Came back out and tried to start it but instead of starting the car clicked loudly fastly and the interior lights all started blinking in random order. I changed the starter but the car still does it. Any suggestions?

We got an oil change less than a week ago, then got the brakes done a couple days after that - so my car was in 2 shops last week! When my wife was coming home from the store today, it turned on, but seemed really weak. The car was on, but was a really low hum. When she put it in reverse, it began shaking back and forth. She turned it off, then started it up again, and it seemed to have a little more power, but still not normal. She started to reverse again, and noticed there was some greyish smoke coming out the tailpipe area. She decided to try and make it home, which was only a few miles away.

It seemed to be driving fine, but would shake a bit at low speeds, but not when she was at a full stop.

A few hours later, we go out to try and start it, and it gives one loud click, then nothing. I looked under the hood and realized there is no coolant in the reservoir. I filled it up, and put some in the radiator cap. The car still does the same thing.

I cleaned out the battery terminals. I haven't yet tried to jump it - it was a little late, so I didn't want to ask a friend to come over.

But if it doesn't end up being the battery, what else could it be? Why would there be no coolant?

Everything electrical works fine but the motor will not crank. When the key is turned the light on the radio goes out but I do not hear and clicking of the starter. This just started happening. If I try it again later it may start. Is it possible there is a security interlock that is failing?

This car has 50,000 miles, in great shape, nearly new battery. Just recently (sometimes)when I try to start it, nothing! No starter engaging, only a faint "click" from somewhere near the right side of the car. I shift through all the gears, back to park, nothing. Take the key out, reinsert, open and shut doors, locks, back to park - nothing! Sit for 5 minutes and try again. Magically, it starts. When home and in the garage, it won't start again. After going through the pre-described voodoo it starts 10 or 15 times in a row. Household expert (who finally witnessed the curse) says it's not the starter and thinks I may not have had it fully in park. I say "Hogwash!" What do you say?

I have replace the ignition control module and coil packs as well as the crankshaft positioning sensor and still no spark at the coils. The ignition control module isn't getting any power and the wire that runs power to it has continuity from the fire wall to the module I also found a second ignition tumbler wired up under the dash I am not sure what route to go if I could get some suggestions or some answers it would be greatly appreciated.

All of my fuses are in working order as well as my fuel pump I have pressure at the fuel rail.

I also rewired the ground and I have ground throughout

I have a 98 lesabre that wont start. It just clicks. I got a brsnd new battery n ive tried tapping on the starter w a hammer. When I jump the solenoid with a screw driver I get plenty of spark and clicks but it will not crank the engine

I found the break in the circuit and have power to the module again but it still won't start it tries to start but won't stay running. I have spark and fuel pressure. Any idea what my problem could be?

My 98 lesabre wont start with key. If I jump starter, car runs 5-10 seconds and shuts off. With key on, security light blinks cotinuously. Anti-theft relay?Location?
