- While troubleshooting a headlight problem: Technician A says that when one headlamp does not work, the problem may be a burned-out bulb or lamp. Technician B says that you should check for voltage at the bulb before replacing a bulb. Who is correct? Technician A Technician B Both A and B Neither A nor Barrow_forwardTechnician 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_forward
- When 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_forwardTrue or False? HID lamps produce more heat and white light than a halogen bulb.arrow_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_forward
