Oil pressure gage for 2006 chevrolet express reads 20 at start up is that normal
You didn't specify which engine you have. So I listed available engines here - 4.3L and the 4.8,5.3,6.0L Gas motors have a minimum spec of 6psi at 1000rpm and 18psi at 2000rpm, and the 6.6L diesel has a 7psi idle and 28psi at 1800rpm. That being said - 20 psi is good. 20-40 is usually a good number at idle - it will move up the engine speed.

Brake fluid leaking
Look at the insides of the wheels from under the car and look for a wet wheel. Check around the rear of the brake master cylinder for signs of leakage. Sometimes the fluid will leak from the brake master cylinder into the brake vacuum booster. You would need to remove the master and check for fluid in the booster.

Reset check engine light
After the problem is fixed, you would need to clear the code with a code reader or scanner to turn the light off.

Car wont start just clicks
That is the starter solenoid closing the contacts in the starter, but unfortunately to no further action. Most likely your battery is dying, and cannot supply the heavy cranking current needed. Such a battery might still operate the lights tho.
If the battery is newish, then it may not be getting charged properly, so you could get the alternator tested.
Another possibility is that the starter solenoid main contacts are worn and not touching any more, even though they click in.

Reset computer 2000 chevrolet express
Are you wanting to reset the error codes??? If so, go to one of the Auto Parts stores that can "lend" you an OBD scanner. Easy to hook up and in most cases, the guys there will help you. With the OBD scanner attached, it will allow you to RESET codes... Other than that, there is no RESET for the computer.You can unhook the battery for 24 hours but...then you have to set your clock, radio stations, etc... Easier to stop by AutoZone.

2006 chevy 3500 stuck in park
Do the brake lights work? If so, try turning ignition to on, no dash lights, and not to start and shifting to neutral then try to start it. If this allows it to start in neutral. Then it is the Transmission brake safety switch. If the brake lights don't work it's the brake light switch.

Headlights stay when car off
It is normal. Some cars sound an alarm when the key is pulled out from the switch and the lights are still on. Good luck

Fuel filter location
The filter should be in the fuel line between the gas tank and the engine. The line runs under the floor along the frame.

Mechanical
Any chance the check engine light is on ?My first thoughts are fuel pump, ignition module or coil. It may be tough to find if you can't duplicate the problem in a repair shop. Someone may have to take tools and equipment on the drive and troubleshoot it when it happens.When it happens, will it sit and idle or does it shut down ?

Shorting window switch
Vehicle? Do all the windows work when the switch is replaced? How long does it last? Are one of the other switches stuck in position?Do all the other swicthes seem okay?On gm they all run through drivers side. Some systems are different. From the drivers side to say the passenger side front there are two wires that switch polarity between up and down. one wire is negative for up and positive for down, the other wire acts exact opposite. the other system the motor is grounded and there is a positive for up and a positive for down and no ground runs through. but I would say a bad door seal somewhere(bottom of driver window,at hinge tube conduit, or between door and vehicle up by windshield as water will follow seal around to inside of door)of if its a ford could be a gem module problem.
