'87 saltare, ohm buzzer sounds most of the time but almost always at lower rpm's

i have a few questions about the ohm buzzer and volt meter...

ohm buzzer...why is it going off? i have 2 batteries and they're both charged and in good condition (starting and deep cycle) with an isolator, verified with multi-meter. if the starting battery just had enough juice to get a reluctant engine started, why would the ohm buzzer sound when it's running? my alternator is a high-output and in good condition, also verified with multi-meter.

where is the ohm buzzer connected? could it be sensing something not accurate?

where is the voltmeter connected in an ignition system? is it setting the ohm buzzer off?

can i replace the OEM volt gauge with a digital and connect it directly to the starting battery? or does it need to be connected to something else?

thanks in advance

I should have read this first. Read my reply in "no oil preasure"

My 89 Conbrio does the same thing. Starts great has lots of power to run the stereo but every once and a while a buzzer will go off.
I thought maybe low voltage as the volt meter only reads 12 to 13 most of the time.
Could this be????

Usually caused by a weak ground somewhere.
