A drum is chattering on the brake A : failure to install the dampening belt
lathe. This could be a result of
why : a missing dampening belt could cause the
a. failure to install the dampening drum to vibrate while on the lathe. this vibration
belt can cause the drum to bounce on the cutting tip
b. cutting too slowly and make a chattering noise
c. dull cutting blades
d. cutting speed too fast
A vehicle equipped with a hydro- C : low power steering fluid
boost brake system has a hard pedal
with little braking action. Which of why : low power steering fluid can cause the
the following could be the cause? booster to provide very little if any boost
a. low brake fluid
b. air in the brake fluid
c. low power steering fluid
d. an overtightened power steering
belt
,Which of the following could cause D : missing clips
excessive noise braking?
why : missing anti-rattle clips could cause excessive
a. worn wheel cylinders noise while braking
b. worn caliper pistons
c. seized caliper slides
d. missing clips
A vehicle equipped with a "hill C : scan tool
holding" option has an ABS code.
Which tool would most likely be why : a scan tool or oscilloscope can be used to
used to check the wheel speed test a signal from a digital when speed sensor
sensor?
a. AC volt meter
b. Ohm meter
c. Scan tool
d. Ammeter
The brake system has a soft, sinking C : a bypassing master cylinder
pedal with the engine running. The
brake fluid level is at the correct why : a bypassing master cylinder would cause a
height. Which of the following could low pedal and would not cause a loss of fluid
be the cause?
a. a restricted vacuum hose
b. a leaking master cylinder
c. a bypassing master cylinder
d. a stuck open vacuum check valve
,Technician A says the pins should be D : neither A OR B
driven in with a brass hammer.
Technician B says the pins should be why : neither technician is correct. this style of pin
lubricated with brake fluid. Who is should be installed with a torx or hex head socket
correct? ( pg. 47 )
a. A
b. B
c. A & B
d. neither A OR B
Technician A says a hydro-boost A : only A
system can use the power steering
pump to operate the booster. why : only tech A is correct. a hydro-boost system
Technician B says a hydro-boost uses hydraulic pressure to create boost
system can use engine vacuum to
operate the booster. Who is correct?
( pg. 47 )
a. A
b. B
c. A & B
d. neither A & B
A disc brake caliper is dragging. All D : worn brake pads
of the following could be the cause
EXCEPT why : worn brake pads will not cause the brakes to
drag
a. binding pins
b. sticking piston
c. binding caliper
d. worn brake pads
, Which operation is being performed C : master cylinder bleeding
in the illustration? ( pg. 48 )
why : the master cylinder is being bleed prior to
a. wheel cylinder bleeding installation
b. brake caliper bleeding
c. master cylinder bleeding
d. master cylinder pressure test
The rear wheels of a front wheel A : A only
drive car lockup during heavy
breaking. Technician A says this could why : tech A is correct. a faulty proportioning valve
be cause by faulty proportioning could cause the pressure to the rear wheels to be
valve. Technician B says this could be too high and lock the wheels during hard braking
caused by a faulty brake booster.
Who is correct?
a. A only
b. B only
c. Both A & B
d. Neither A or B
There is a loud growling noise only B : worn wheel bearing
when the vehicle is steered to the
right while driving. Which of the why : this is a typical wheel bearing noise
following could be the cause?
a. work left front brakes
b. worn wheel bearing
c. worn right front brakes
d. sticking brake caliper
