fix the power steering.

You could temp unplug the power steering 'puter in the dash right behind the drivers dash speaker, but your power steering will be disabled.

Just unplug the computer, or take the power steering system out. it sucks.

I had the beep for a while too, it's the sensor going to your power steering motor (very small motor.) connected to power steering.

The most common failure for the power steering computer is either the steering wheel was removed and replaced wrong or the speedo cable is disconnected or broken from the gauge cluster.
