Default Replaced Heater core, help!

Ok, so I replaced the heater core and got everything back together, I got everything together and it seems to be fine but when I first start the car it beeps a very loud annoying beep 4 times and then repeats that about 3 times. What could this be? I don't have any errors or anything. Maybe I forgot to plug something in? Any thoughts on the beeps would be helpful.

Im on my phone so i cant see your sig or car info, but if its a 1990+ there is a blue box under the center vents that is the air bag diag module, it beeps like that when there is a fault in the system. if you dropped the column, recheck the wiring to it, or recheck the harness going to the module.

Hey mattdel... does that blue box provide the turn signal chime as well? It sounds like it comes from the same area.

I'm getting ready to remove the box because my air bags are disabled... if the turn signal chime is from that box then oh well I can live without it.

The door chime should be up under the dash on the drivers side, but could sound like its coming from that box.

youve got something disconnected to the air bag sensor more than likely

that box only beeps like that if the cluster bulb is out for the air bag, turn the ignition key on, does the air bag light light up at all??

I believe it is located rite behind the stereo, no need to pull the dash!

So how does a person get it to stop beeping all the time? My dad has been hinting me to getting his to quit
