- Technician A says that a sealed-beam headlight that is cracked should be replaced. Technician B says that cracking or breaking of the composite housing or lens does not prevent a halogen bulb from working. Who is correct? Technician A Technician B Both A and B Neither A nor Barrow_forwardWhile diagnosing an HID lamp that does not turn on: Technician A says a smoky or blackened lamp may indicate the bulb is burned out. Technician B says before replacing a suspected bad ballast, check to make sure it is getting power and ground. Who is correct? Technician A Technician B Both A and B d. Neither A nor Barrow_forwardWhen the headlights are switched from low beam to high beam, all headlights go out: Technician A says that the problem may be a bad dimmer switch. Technician B says that the ignition switch may be bad. Who is correct? Technician A Technician B Both A and B Neither A nor Barrow_forward
- Technician A says that a composite headlight housing that is cloudy should be replaced. Technician B says that clouding or oxidizing of the composite housing or lens may be removed. Who is correct? a. Technician A b. Technician B c. Both A and B d. Neither A nor Barrow_forwardWhich of the following is not a true statement about lamp-out warning lights? The lamp-out warning module measures small changes in voltage levels. An electronic switch in the module completes a ground path for the indicator lights in the event of a bulb going out. A special resistance wire is used in multibulb systems. When a bulb burns out. the module senses the increased voltage drop and turns on the indicator lamp.arrow_forwardTechnician A says that flickering vehicle lights can be caused by a circuit breaker that is kicking in and out due to a short. Technician B says that flickering vehicle lights can be caused by a loose electrical connection. Who is correct? Technician A Technician B Both A and B Neither A nor Barrow_forward

The headlights on many adaptive head light systems can swivel up to 5 degrees in the direction the vehicle is turning.arrow_forwardWhat are the most probable causes for one low-beam headlamp not working?arrow_forward
- Which of the following would probably not cause the headlights on both sides of the vehicle not to work? An open in the power or ground circuit A bad (control) switch A blown fuse Low generator outputarrow_forwardCircuits that can energize the high beams even if the headlight switch is off are known as circuits. flash-to-pass mercury dimmer retractablearrow_forwardWhile discussing solar sensors: Technician A says that a solar sensor is a photo diode that receives a 5-volt reference signal from the control module. Technician B says that when the intensity of sunlight increases, the output voltage increases, and as the sunlight decreases, the output voltage decreases. Who is correct?
