B- Always disconnect the ne the negative battery cable and wrap with
tape so contract cannot be made. Follow the specific vehicle's
disarming instructions, as some SRS system can retain back up power
for an additional period of time.
Ans: 2. An air bag system is being serviced. Tech A says to
disconnect the yellow SRS connectors at the front of the
vehicle. Tech B says to disconnect and isolate the negative
battery cable. Who is right?
A. Tech A only
B. Tech B only
C. Both A and B
D. Neither A or B
Ans: Always disconnect negative battery terminal
A- for best results and less corrosion at the solder point, a rosin core
flux should be used.

Ans: 3. Which of these should be used when soldering electrical
wiring connections?
A. Rosin Core Flux
B. Acid core Flux
C. Sulfur Core Flux
D. none of the above.
D- For maximum protection to the computer controlled system of any
electronic circuit, it is best to use at least a 10 megohm impedance
digital multimeter.
Ans: 4. When testing computer controlled systems, a digital
multi-meter should be used with an input impedance of at least:
A. 10k ohms
B. 100k ohms
C. 1 megohm
D.10 megohms
B- always use an ammeter of a low amperage amp clamp with your
DMM to troubleshoot a slow drain in an electrical circuit>
Ans: 5. When troubleshooting a slow drain on the battery,
which of these diagnostic tools should be used?

C. voltmeter
D. Test light
B- A galvanometer is an analog type voltmeter. OEMs almost
universally recommend the use of a non intrusive conductive capacitive
type battery tester.
Ans: 6. The condition of a lead-acid battery is being checked.
Tech A says to use a galvanometer.. Tech B says to use a
capacitive battery tester.
A. Tech A only
B. Tech B only
C. Both A and B
D. Neither A or B
A- if an engine cranks slowly and the starter current draw is only 90
amps and the voltage is as high as 11 volts, the tech should next check
for excessive voltage drop in the starter motor circuit.
Ans: 7. While testing a starting circuit on a 5.7 V8 engine, the
Tech finds that the engine cranks slowly. The starter current
draw is 90 amps, and the battery voltage while cranking is 11
volts. What should the Tech Do next?
A. Check for voltage drop of the starter motor circuit.
B. Test the battery capacity.

C. Replace the starter motor, as a short is indicated.
D. Determine the condition of the engine.
C- Both techs are correct, worn alternator bearings and/or a bad
alternator diode will cause the alternator to be noisy.
Ans: 8. Tech A says that a noisy alternator could be caused by a
bad diode. Tech B says that noisy alternator could be caused by
a worn bearing. Who is right?
A. Tech A only
B. Tech B only
C. Both A and B
D. Neither A or B
D- if the circuit is open, as in the rotor winding shown, the Ohmmeter
will show infinite resistance or infinity, and the needle will not move.
Ans: 9. The analog ohmmeter needle does not move when
connected to both sides of the rotor. This means the rotor
winding is?
A. Shorted
B. Grounded
C. Complete
D. Open
