just recently my dashboard has been making a werid beeping noise...at first i checked the oil and coolant to make sure everything was ok, but it still came back...it goes on exactly 3-4mins as soon as i turn the car on and drive off with it...can somebody help me? the noise is driving me crazy!!! the noise pattern goes something like this "* * * * *!" "* * * * *!" "* * * * *!..." (*=beep)

 

power steering computer?

 

roll start you car.... is it the same beep?

 

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
