All fixed now. Took Paul's advice and found that the problem was with the
ground connection at the steering rack. Even after repairing the terminal it
still didn't work. I couldn't trace where the black and brown wire going
from the harness to the rack went. It doesn't appear in any schematics or
come out of the harness anywhere I could find it. My solution was to run a
wire from the plug on the steering rack to the mounting bolt on the bottom
of the alternator. Beeps real good now.
Thanks again everybody for the help.
