Disconnect the battery for a few minutes. This should clear the code. Unless you have fixed the problem that set the code it will come on again.
1989 Pontiac Bonneville starts fine but quits after about 10 minutes then starts again but wont stay running?
The 10 minutes is generally the time it takes to heat up your oil. As it gets to the high temperature, it causes the Crankshaft Sensor to fail. Had this exact issued on my 1989 Bonneville. Easy Test: The CSS is on the bottom right front of the engine with its sensor head in the crankshaft (bottom of serpentine belt). When it is about to temperature of OIL, not water, spray some water on that area of oil pan. You should continue to run fine. Simply replace the $50 part, and you are done. Had this same thing, with just a bit less frequency happen to my 1997 Bonneville! Replaced the CSS and it runs fine.
Where do you find the dip stick for a 2000 Pontiac Bonneville power steering unit?
The power steering pump is on the back side of the engine, on the passenger side, under the alternator. The dipstick is on the cap itself. Unscrew the cap, pull it out, wipe it off, reinsert it, pull it out again, the fluid level should be between the hot and cold marks.

You may want to check your battery. Take it to auto zone and have them do a free diagnostics test. Mine needed a new battery. (Make sure it's powerful enough too)

Pontiac Bonneville 1988 SSE keeps flashing check engine soon how can switch it off?
The check engine light usually means that a sensor on the engine control system has failed. Most auto parts stores will read the code for you for free, and tell you what needs replaced. Failure to replace defective sensors can lead to poor gas mileage and long term engine damage. To simply clear the code and shut off the light, disconnect the battery for 60 seconds or more. If you have not fixed the problem that triggered the code in the first place it will most likely come back on again in a very soon.
