Annoying Warning Beep

I bought this 97 F150 and it has an annoying beep when you start it. It beeps 4 times, pauses then starts again for 4 times and again for a total of 5 sets of 4 beeps. Then it will do it again after you have been driving for 30 minutes. I have yet to drive it for an hour to see if it does it again.
My guess is it was a seat belt warning, but it doesn't matter if the seat belts are latched or not. How do you get rid of this?
Thanks, Matt

Is the air bag lamp working in the dash? Has the airbag module been unplugged or is the system disabled? Sounds like the audible backup warning system for the airbag system.

Sure it isn't a 5 X 5 sequence?

If so, it's the airbag audible as already noted.

You are right. It is a 5x5 sequence.
Thanks
