K, this kinda scared me the other day. I went to warm up my car, I increased the RPM's when she was about half warm to speed the procees. Then when I let off, there was this weird Beep....Beep....Beep, like a warning signal or something. Nothing else was flashing or anything, all the guages seemed to be in order, I really didnt know what it was. My car is an 87 TII by the way. So, when she was warm, I shut her off and restared her, the beeping went away. Should I be worried? Anyone help me out on what it was? Thanks.

Power steering computer. I hear that when you rev the engine while not moving it gives you the beep. I don't have PS, but maybe someone else can confirm.

You've got a problem with your P/S computer or the circuit.



It makes an annoying beep and goes away when you shut it off and turn it back on again.



You can flick the ignition to make it go away while you are driving too..
