its the steering computer, i forget what 3 beeps means, but its telling you wants wrong.... mine beeps cause it doesnt get a speed signal (forgot about that one when i fixed the cluster)
you can unplug the steering computer and the pump will default to a certain position. the FSM says 50%, my old t2 felt like 50%, current car 87 gxl feels like manual steering.
if you wanted to get really fancy, since assist is based on vehicle speed, you could make your own assist level if you wanted to
