A technician is diagnosing the cause of an insufficient heat problem. He notices the fan

is working but not providing much air flow. He disconnects the fan power feed wire

and connects the fan to the battery using a fused jumper wire. The specification for the

fan motor is 16 amps. His ammeter shows 26 amps when the fan is jumped directly to

the battery. What could be the problem?


bad fan motor ground




high resistance in the fan motor wiring




shorted wiring in the fan motor

,all answers are correct - ✔✔Shorted Wiring in fan motor


A technician is testing a circuit that uses a ground-controlled relay to provide power to

the circuit load. With the relay installed in its socket, the control terminal of the relay is

grounded by a jumper wire; nothing happens. Technician A says check the coil input

terminal for voltage. Technician B says connect a jumper wire between battery negative

and the output terminal of the relay to check if the load is the problem. Who is correct?




A only




B only




both A and B

, neither A nor B - ✔✔A only


A technician is testing a connector in a circuit with a voltmeter. With the power on in

the circuit, the meter reads 12 volts when the leads are placed on each side of the

connector. This indicates that the connector _____.




is shorted to ground




is open




is good




has current flowing through it - ✔✔is open


All the following are lab scope adjustments EXCEPT:
