Gorgeous car! Love it! I had a silver 2000 Park in 02. Can't beat that trumpet horn (too bad they did away with 'em). And my 04 Accord does the exact same thing (acts like the batttery is dead after listening to the radio, doors open) whencleaning / detailing the interior. If I close they doors & turn everything off, it will start after 15-20 minutes. Thought mine was the only possessed car around.LOL!
ya im having the same trouble with my 98 park avenue the batteries are not good enough or something i need something bigger cause the one i got the cables wont go in all the way and i have to randomly move it around every now and again to get the damn car to start or it will do what yours is not kick over the first try than works the 2nd
I don't think there was a battery problem. I think he just didn't drive it long enough for the alternator to charge it back up again. It died because he had the lights on while he was detailing it, I think.
it was definitely the battery. My Olds LSS (same motor as that Buick) does that exact same thing with the speedo and tach every time my battery's weak
Cool car, i wish Buicks were sold in Sweden too! I like the steering gear, never been in a car with that. But the hubcaps looks like shit, like they were designed for people over 80 or something. No offence though. I just think it would look super nice with black rims from a cop car or something like that.
I think the battery just died because he had the lights on the entire time he was working on cleaning the car up. Once you get it going again, you have to drive it for a good 10 minutes or more so the alternator can charge the battery back up.
i love my 3.8(not supercharged) 99 monte carlo engine.. 114k miles and runs like new, we parked it for over a year, threw a battery in it, and started like it was ran yesterday! now its my daily driver, and boyyyy does it burn them tires! One of the best engines (quality and performance wise) any car making industry ever made
my 2001 ford expedition xlt is currently having the same electrical problems but this time when i jumped it, it wont start at all.

That is a very nice Park Avenue for it's age. It looks pretty new. I always loved those Buicks, especially the Lesabre and the Park Avenue.
