Code 118 is for the coolant temp sensor out of range and code 108 is for the map sensor out of range.
Could be faulty sensors but I would think it is a wiring problem since two sensors seldom fail at the same time.

SOURCE: key will not start my 95 buick park avenue

does your key have a chip on it ? if it does , the problem is going to be that ,key chip only works with the original computer , until you have it reprogrammed by the dealer . this is an anti theft function to keep someone from stealing your car . there fore your car will not start until the chip matches the ecm.

SOURCE: What does trouble code P0171 for a 2002 Buick Park

Trouble Code: P0171 (3.8L V6 VIN 1 Auto)
Fuel Trim System Lean (Bank 1) Print this code dataprint_icon_codes.gif Number of Trips to Set Code: 2
OBD II Monitor Type: CCM Details
Indicators: MIL Details

Trouble Code Conditions:
DTC P0101-P0103, P0107, P0108, P0121-P0123, P0130-P0138, P0140, P0141, P0201-P0206, P0300, P0401-P0405, P0410, P0440-P0446, P0506, P0507, P1404 or P1441 not set, engine started, vehicle driven at less than 82 mph at 550-4000 rpm, BARO sensor over 70 kPa (10.1 psi), ECT sensor from 68-230ºF, IAT sensor from 64-158ºF, MAF sensor from 2.8-150 gm/s, MAP sensor from 16-105 kPa (2.6-15.2 psi), fuel level over 10%, and the PCM detected the Long Term fuel trim value was more than +20% for 6 seconds. The PCM controls the air/fuel metering system to good overall fuel economy, driveability, and emission control. During open loop, the PCM determines fuel delivery based on sensor signals, without the oxygen sensor input. During closed loop, the PCM adds oxygen sensor inputs to calculate Short and Long term fuel trim fuel delivery adjustments. Short Term fuel trim values change rapidly in response to changes in the oxygen sensor signals. Long Term fuel trim makes coarse adjustments in order to maintain an air/fuel ratio of 14.7:1.

Possible Causes:
  • Air leaks in intake manifold, exhaust pipes or exhaust manifold
  • Fuel control sensor is out of calibration (ECT, IAT or MAF)
  • Low fuel pressure (fuel filter clogged, pressure regulator failure)
  • One or more injectors restricted or pressure regulator has failed
  • HO2S element is contaminated, deteriorated or has failed
  • Vacuum hose is disconnected, broken, leaking or loose

SOURCE: repair seat belt latch - stuck- 1998 buick park-

Seat belts are usually not repairable.The only thing that can be done is to check and make sure nothing is stuck in it or that it is not twisted.You have the kind that is in the seat back itself.These are a little more difficult to remove from the seat because it is so easy to break the plastic trim covers.Best thing to do if not familiar with auto repair to go to the dealer or auto repair shop that you trust and have them repair it.Good luck.

1998 Buick Park Ave with trouble code p0440

Trouble code p0440 may be a simple as an improperly replaced gas cap, or a crack in one of the evap hoses.
Have the code cleared, if it comes back, find a shop that will do a "smoke test" to find the bad evap hose, and have it replaced.
