yea i think it is because i unplugged the power steering electrical connector and the noise turned off but it drove like a mack truck...it needed power steering fluid anyway so i put some in...but as soon as i reconnected it, it did the same beeping noise 3-4 min after i drove off with it...maybe i need a new power steering computer? i have the haynes repair manual and i also have a mechanics workshop manual for the car but i cant find anything that can tell me why the power steering is making that beeping noise...does anybody have any suggestions? |
Is it leaking fluid?
|
Have you messed with you throttle body? Little tweeks can cause beeps.

not sure...i know i put more than enough power steering fluid, but it was almost empty when i first checked it. ill check it again but i think the system could have air...but then again if it had air it probably wouldnt be steering good right? |

no i havent really messed with my throttle body |
grounding a power wire makes a beep like that
|
sounds like the speed wire from the gauge cluster is bad, mine had a break in it and made the the same beeping noise
