Buzzing??

I made a thread a while back on this issue, but it's different now, so this is a different thread, my RX7 is now perfectly drivable, I haven't put insurance and all on it but I crank and play with it daily, but when I get in the car and crank it up there is this buzz noise, and I have tried my best I get rid of this pest of a problem but I cannot. Please help.

How is it different than before? Are you familiar w/the noise created when the coolant level or oil level is low and the buzzer goes off? If so, is this the sound you hear or are you not familiar w/how this buzzer sounds.

No I'm not familiar, on the dash warning lights the only two lit are Washer and Oil Level, yet I know I have plenty of oil and the car has oil pressure

which would tell you either you are wrong or the lights are. so take that into account when hearing buzzing sounds

The dipstick shows that there is plenty of oil, and the gauge shows oil pressure, and it movies as you get into the throttle and then back down the way it should, so I believe the lights are, how do I stop that?

I have found that my dipstick is wrong. When it gets down to the top of the full mark the buzzer will go off, so I add a quart.

You have a sensor in the oil sump and if the sensor wire is grounded then the buzzer would go off. Now there might be enough oil in the pan but that doesn't mean the wire cannot have a ground on it. So, you'll have to check this wire which is Red/White and see if it has a ground or not when the buzzer is going off. You can also pull the sensor wire plug off of the sensor and if the buzzer stops then you know what the cause is.
