'86 5KTQ: That beeper dammit!



Friends,

Well, I can't take it anymore.  I've tried and tried, but I've 
finally cracked!

When I drive to school all is normal.

After school, on my way home, when I hit the brakes, the little 
beeper starts to beep.  Upon letting off the brakes it ceases.  
Usually.  Sometimes it beeps all of the time.  Sometimes it beeps 
only when the car is going downhill.  Sometimes it beeps after the 
car is jolted (ala pot-hole).

It seems to do this more when it is hotter outside.

I know what my solution is going to be really soon (CUT WIRE TO 
BEEPER), but I'd rather know the true cause.

Anyone gone through this before?
