Default Random Beeping sound

I just recently removed my gauge cluster to install a aluminum bezel. When i got everything back together and working i now have a random beep beep beep noise coming from the radio area. It never did this before. I was really low on gas so i figured it might be the problem but sure enough it isnt. I have removed it before and never had this problem. It only beeps when the engine is running. When i go drive the car it stops after a few seconds and does not come back. Then i turn the car off and start it again and the problem is back and it will keep beeping until the car is driven again. Does anyone have any idea what this would be caused by? It did remove the light from the cluster that shows the airbag sign because it has been flashing ever since i got the car? The more i think about it i think it might be the problem. Let me know what you think
Thanks
Ryan

it's the air bag module, if you removed the bulb in the cluster for the air bag light or it is burned out, that is the noise, check the bulb or light and see if it lights up with the key in the on position

So how do you eliminate the AIR BAG light AND the beeping noise... without having the air bag system installed? Replace the bulb with a resistor or somthin?

So if you pull that blue module out from behind the glove box and also pull the air bag light bulb out... there will be no light or beeping noise?
