Do you have power steering?

You didn't shut it off when it was still cold because the alarm came on did you? I did that once, stupid flooding, I'll never do it again.



Is it like the key beep? Or the buzzer for coolant?

the PS beeps for a bunch of dumb reasons, one being if the idle is too high for too long

So, what happens if your car beeps 5 times and then pauses then beeps 5 times and then pauses...on and on and on and on....

i think thats the steering angle sensor. if its not lined up when you put the steering wheel on, its confused.



in the shop manual this stuff is not in the steering section, but in the BODY ELECTRICAL section
