Could be a bad fuel pump.
The fuse between the battery and alternator is a fusible link in the small wire that hooks up to the battery terminal along with the regular battery cable. It looks like a thick spot in the wiring. To replace, the cable must be replaced. .

ignition module is inside distributor along with hall sensor
Along with the ignition switch, there's a neutral safety switch that could be bad, VATS key chip relay if you have this, and possibly fusible links near the battery. Other than that, it COULD be the starter relay. The wire from the ignition should be either purple or red at the solenoid. If there is a small black wire at the solenoid, it should come right from the battery. The VATS can definitely open this, better if you don't have the chip key when this happens. Find the procedure to wire around it, at least temporarily until you verify it is not the problem. Good luck.
You will need to take proof of ownership or registration to a buick dealer, along with the vin number, but they should be able to get it off the registration. Now If the car has ever had the ignition replaced it might not work. I acutally lost the keys to my Avalon in a drunkin stuper, which was a good thing, and had to got to the dealership and do this
Alternator
It could be a bad battery, or connection. A bad starter and or solenoid could be the problem, along with an ignition switch to name a few.
How about the plug wires? If plug wires don't fix it I'd bet it's the injectors.
There are a lot of things that could be wrong. If you hear a clicking noise, it could be: -the alternator isn't charging the battery so it won't have the power to at least turn over -the battery is dead from other reasons than the alternator -wiring is grounded out somewhere along the ignition wiring -bad ignition switch -bad relay -bad fuse -ignition coil is defective -distributor cap is defective -rotor needs to be replaced ....sorry there are a million reasons....try check the battery and alternator and go from there...

You'd have to describe the components you replaced. Did you use a plug and go all in one distributor or did you replace the coil, distributor, and add an electronic ignition unit? If you "fried" your ignition, it's likely you fried something else along the line too. Check all your components.
I have the same problem with my 2003 along with many others. There is a whole thread on this issue some say changing the battery is the cheapest first step and or check the battery connection for corrosion. Some say replace the ignition switch as GM replaced the switch on 2004+ models. Could also be the starter solenoid. I wish there was an answer here already.
the ignition actuator is broken, you can turn off the "battery power" by the the ignition actuator rod that leads to the ignition switch, it runs along the top of the steering column under the dash, locate it and pull it towards the steering wheel, this should shut off the power. or you can unhook you battery, but either way you will have to replace the actuator.

THere should be an ABS warning light that comes on briefly along with all the other indicator lights when you turn the ignition on.
The Chevy Impala (which closed out in 1996 along with sister Caprice) replaced the Lumina in 2001. Although it was assopsed to replace it in 2000 Chevy decided to keep it 1 more year. That final year sales plunged down to half of the previous. THEY STILL MAKE LUMINAS! But not in north america.
i just had the similar problem. i repaced the coil pack an the ignition module. they are not hard to do. if then you still have no luck replace the distributor itself. its not hard to do but you will need to check the timing once you have it running. get yourself a chilton an haynes book. it will help you along the way. best of luck.
