What is the batteries voltage with the vehicle not running?If less than 12v most likely the alternator can not keep up with a bad battery.If you have a large steroe system installed make sure the Alternator can keep up with it.Make sure the bely is tight and not dry-cracked and brittle as it may slip without making noise.How do you know it is charging? You have 14.2v with it running? You test the Diods? Load test?Make sure the battery light turns on when you turn the key on before you start the engine. if the bulb is burned out the signal to turn the alternator on will never reach it.

Remove your steering wheel and look for the series of rings that supply power to your steering wheel buttons. Look for something broken or out of place that would move and short against the ring that provides power to the horn.

You obviously need to take it back apart and see what the issue is. Did you install the pad backwards?? You could have cocked the piston when you compressed it back in .

A misfire doesn't always have to be ignition... it's just the most common cause. Faulty or plugged injector, low compression. You need to check fuel pressure and test the fuel injector flow. Then check compression. If you don't have tools for these tests, take it to someone who does. Testing is much cheaper than throwing parts at the problem.

Could be a bad master cylinder. The seals inside can fail, and no brake pressure is the result.

if the sensors are bad it will do same thing

It can only be one of a handful of problems. The most obvious is just a bad bulb. Another is that the socket that the bulb connects to is bad. You can also check and see if you have a fuse that is specific to the left headlight. You should check to see if the socket/bulb assembly is getting any electrical power. That will help out in a big way. If you are getting power to it, then its either the bulb or the socket that is bad. (Try the bulb, first.)

the crankshaft senor is located behind the harmonic balancer you need to pull off the balancer in order to replace it

I had the same problem with my grand am replace the coolant reservoir tank that should fix your issue
