I have an '89 Bonneville 3.8L. Last week it would not start and had it towed to a local mechanic who replaced the ignition module. Today I had difficulties where it died several times and then had no electrical power. I checked the connections, tightened them and all was fine. Tonight I tried to start her and electrically everything works, but she will not turn over. The headlights are bright but when I turn thekey it makes a single click and nothing happens. The dash lights do not get dim. I have little experience with American cars. (American car companies seem to want to complicate everything and have no logical or engineering background in their designs) But I have worked on foreign cars and American trucks for quite a while. Any ideas on where to look to diagnose this?
