- Technician A says that based on current conditions, a reference voltage sensor modifies a fixed voltage from the computer and sends that voltage back to the computer. Technician B says that most reference voltage sensors are variable resistors or potentiometers. Who is correct? Technician A Technician B Both A and B Neither A nor Barrow_forwardWhich of the following statements about zirconium oxygen sensors is not true? The normal operating range for an O2S is between 0 and 1 volt. If the sensors voltage toggles between 0 volts and 500 millivolts, it is operating normally. The voltage signal from an upstream O2S should have seven cross counts within 5 seconds with the engine running without a load at 2,500 rpm. Engine control systems monitor the activity of the O2S and store a code when the sensors output is not within the desired range.arrow_forwardWhile diagnosing an electronic control system: Technician A turns the ignition off before disconnecting a connector or component. Technician B uses a jumper wire to bypass a potentially faulty sensor and then observes the scan tool. Who is correct? Technician A Technician B Both A and B Neither A nor Barrow_forward
- Which of the following is not a voltage-generating type sensor? vehicle speed sensor OSS MAP ISSarrow_forward3- Contact Type displacement sensors makes direct contact with the object being monitored. Select one: True Falsearrow_forwardA TPMS sensor is being replaced. Technician A says that if you replace it with a manufacturer specific TPMS, you need to program the sensor before install. Technician B says that all manufacture specific TPMS sensors use a 315 MHz radio frequency. Who is correct? Technician A Technician B Both Technician A and B Neither Technician A or Barrow_forward
- When an engine is running lean, the voltage signal from the oxygen sensor will be (low or high).arrow_forwardWhile discussing Hall-effect vehicle speed sensor tests: Technician A says to use an ohmmeter to test the resistance of the coil. Technician B says that the voltage generated by the sensor can be measured by connecting a voltmeter across the sensors terminals. Who is correct? Technician A Technician B Both A and B Neither A nor Barrow_forwardWhen testing an engine temperature sensor: Technician A uses an ohmmeter to test the thermistor. Technician B says that the thermistor reacts to pressure and applies air pressure to the backside of the sensor. Who is correct? Technician A Technician B Both A and B Neither A nor Barrow_forward
- While discussing TP sensor diagnosis: Technician A says that a four-wire TP sensor contains an idle switch. Technician B says that in some applications, the TP sensor mounting bolts may be loosened and the TP sensor housing rotated to adjust the voltage signal with the throttle in the idle position. Who is correct? Technician A Technician B Both A and B 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 EMI can affect sensor signals. Technician B says that EMI can cause intermittent driveability problems. Who is correct? Select one: a. Technician A b. Technician B c. Both A and B d. Neither A nor Barrow_forward
