beeping sequence

I read the posts about the IAC and the "howling" noise and that is what mine is doing. So I bought a new one today and need to put it in. The mechanic pulled a code that said that I had fuel to lean in bank one and bank two. He wanted to replace the MAS but I had replaced it about a year ago. I did not think that that was the problem with the howling. My neighbor and I looked at it and narrowed it down to the IAC but I don't know if that would solve the fuel lean in bank one and two codes we were getting??? I was wondering if the beeping issue is related to the IAC.
Thanks

The beeps might be the backup warning for a burned out SRS/air bag warning bulb.
Does the bulb light up with the other idiot lights when you turn the key to run?
My neighbors 97 4.0 sounded like a fog horn when it was idling. Just above an idle it was quiet. It was the IAC.
The lean codes could be a vacuum leak/low fuel pressure/dirty MAF. Check the PCV hose for any leaks. Seems to be a common problem on some Ranger engines.

BUMP:
Good find fix & feedback on the IAC.
Did you get the lit CEL codes pulled & address that problem/s????
DON'T ignore a lit CEL.
On the Beep, as has been asked, is the passenger air bag indicator lamp out at KOER, before you crank the engine????
Do you have a blikning air bag warning lght???? If so, count the blinks & post the number/s.

Here is a replacement thread on the passenger air bag warning light, that you may find interesting.

EDIT: If you decide to attempt replacement, be sure to First disconnect the B- battery cable & wait 15-30 min for back up memory systems to depower, or just leave a door open, or light on & that should apply enough electrical load to drain any remaining charge out of things online.
Then be sure to read ALL the way through the thread, to find how to remove the switch assy & or to attempt the lamp replacement/repair.
If your of a mind to do that, be sure to pay close attention to the resistance values mentioned.
More thoughts for pondering.
