warning buzzer

Changed my oil today and when I start my engine it revs to 3k rpms like normal but after 5 seconds or so the buzzer goes off and my oil pressure starts to go higher than normal I already checked the oil and its full just like all my fluids. Could it be the omp or oil cooler? Please help. thanks in advance!

try the pressure gauge connector on the oil pan.
also check that the single wire to the sender on the keg is intact.

Its the same buzzer that goes off when you have low coolant but I unplugged my coolant sensor and it still goes off after five seconds.

The wire you unplugged from the coolant level sensor...you need to ground it on the harness side, because that's what the sensor does when the level is good. Do this only temporarily, as the sensor is there to save your a$$. If the buzzer silences, bleed out the air from the rad as you fill it up (bleeder usually on the rad near where the top hose goes to it).

The word keg refers to the engine block 'sandwich'. Basically the 'short block' term for piston engines.

Yeah, make sure you didn't mess up the wires for the oil level sensor.

Thanks for the support but I guess it fixed itself. I took the rad cap off and turned my heat on and it went off after it started to warm up
