STS warning buzzer

I have my boost turned down to 4 lbs. And when I get into it my warning buzzer buzzes. What the hell. Im not running the STS PVC valve, I have my valve cover vented to the atmosphere. Any ideas as to why my buzzer buzzes. Oh yeah I did remove the little gold resistor and hard wired it..

Thanks guys..

the buzzer is an oil pressure warning alarm. either to high or two low and it will sound. my guess would be not enough oil pressure. do you have a high/ low switch? if so, flip it to high and leave it alone. and check for oil leaks

Check those relays, it may be something simple as that...
