4 NA Code for bad water thermo sensor

I got a 87 NA thats im running a TII block on with the S4 NA harness and ECU. I just got it all running and I get this beeep when i turn the key on and it never stops, even with the car running. I checked the car for codes and I got a code for a bad water thermo sensor which is supposed to be the one on the back of the water pump housing. Its all plugged in, so I thought maybe its a bad sensor. I put another sensor on and I still get that same exact code. What can it be?

The ECU doesn't beep. That's probably the power steering computer you're hearing. Chech the FAQ and/or search for more info.

If it's not the sesnor it could be the wiring or (less likely) the ECU. Follow the instructions on page 4A-24 of the FSM.

My 86 base never had power steering and it beeeeeeps. Only when its low on coolant, which only happened once while I was flushing it. It does beep though, and it is VERY loud.

How do i check the continuity between water thermo sensor and control unit? It gives a graph showing BrB wire is 2C in control unit. the GW wire is 2I on the control unit. What do I do with this info exactly?
