My truck beeped at me! (not the the usual beep either) ?!

Ya so, since I had my dash apart for moving my KC light switch (which vame out GREAT) I decided to see if I could make the abs lights go away. I had the key turned on, and the parking lots on for this cause i wanted to see which bulb went to the abs and 'brake' lights cause im kinda tired of looking at them (my truck doesnt have abs for those who arnt in the 'know' ) anyways, i couyldnt get my big fat paw past the rpm thing so i pulled the harness off, and the truck beeped at me like 10x in a row, and it wasnt that usual semi high pitched beep, this was more like a 'wtf are u doing to me' beep.. I thought it was strange to say the least. Anyways, I didnt find the bulb associated with those two light ;( and olugged the harness back in and it stopped beeping.... it was wierd tho... whats the beeping for anyways? and any ideas besides electrical tape to make the two abs lights to go away?

Could be the Restraints System. If the connector for the airbag light is disconnected, there is a backup audible alert. If you let it run its course, there will be 5 sets of 5 low beeps each.
