Like a horn beep or electronic beep? Horn beep is probably the alarm horn on the firewall. Electronic beep, I can't think of anything.

Okay..

Anywhoo.. To not be a jackass about it. Its probably an aftermarket alarm that's malfunctioning. There really isn't anything that would make that kind of noise OEM.

Ofnarc not to be a jackass but you're wrong a OEM part CAN make a high pitch beep sound. You only can be a smartass when you actually KNOW about the car. I already found out what it is everytime i disconnect the vaccuum line from the back of the intake manifold the beep stops so do you know what that means hmmm!?

Man it turns out that my radiator hose is leaking aswell crap.

SMASHEY!!! Lol

This thread and the people in it are ridiculous, well besides jetjock and ofna.

Chris instead of bashing somebody for trying to help you out, maybe, just maybe take a second and listen to what they are saying . And if disconnecting the main vacuum line makes your car stop beeping? I think you have bigger problems.

Just my $.02

Duhh im only 19, buff and handsome(;

Being buff and handsome doesn't get your car fixed....unless you find a chick that knows more about the car then you. As far as the aftermarket alarm goes, if it was malfunctioning, there would be some other problems with it. I had an aftermarket alarm on my JDM Supra and it was making that sound, but that wasn't the only sign....I had problems starting the car because of the alarm cutting the fuel out, my doors would not lock or unlock all the time...... Shit like that.

Smashy, I had a JDM car and 105km/hr is not even close to fast. So why would that have anything to do with it?
