EXAM UPDATES, VERIFIED.
About This Guide:
This comprehensive JLTV resource is designed for trainees, operators, and maintainers preparing for
Joint Light Tactical Vehicle certification. Covering everything from system overviews and vehicle safety
to troubleshooting and field operation, this study set includes verified questions and accurate answers
based on real-world training scenarios. Whether you’re gearing up for Test A, Test B, or daily
operations, this guide will help you train confidently and perform like a pro.
______ adjusts air pressure in all tires to correspond to cargo and terrain settings when selected by driver
- ✔✔-CTIS
...lose momentum when driving uphill... - ✔✔-Downshift transmission to increase RPM to allow more
wheel spin
...tire chains, desirable to allow them to creep/ move on tires? - ✔✔-Reduce possibility of chain to gouge
tires
...transmission fluid leak... - ✔✔-Class I leak so you can operate vehicle
2 types of airlines for flat towing include emergency air lines and the ______ air lines - ✔✔-Service
After fording a water obstacle, press the fording button twice to disable fording mode. What suspension
mode will the JLTV automatically adjust to when deactivated? - ✔✔-Operational
Air over hydraulic brakes function by: - ✔✔-When air system is charged, the air pressure holds hydraulic
braking comp. open so they can't apply
Approach angle: - ✔✔-Maximum angle of ramp/ obstacle onto which JLTV can climb from horizontal
plane without interference
Approach, departure, break over - ✔✔-Front/rear/break over
, Benefits of JLTV independent front/ rear suspension - ✔✔-A, C, D: less side to side movement than
standard suspension, each wheel can spin independently, more traction
Class III leak: - ✔✔-Droplets formed and falls off vehicle
Climb steep hill (30* grade) choose to set transaxle to low range, what steps to put transmission in low: -
✔✔-A, B, C
CTIS when incline is 30* - ✔✔-Cross Country
CTIS: soft sand? - ✔✔-MSS
Departure angle? - ✔✔-Angle between ground, line drawn rear tire, lowest hanging part of JLTV at the
rear hang
Driving on 15* side slope when downhill tires sink into softer dirt than uphill tires immediate effect on
vehicle? - ✔✔-Slope angle increased making roll over more likely
Explain why the MUX panel switches need to be pressed and held for at least one second: - ✔✔-To
prevent inadvertent bumps/ taps
If forward motion is stopped because of a loss of traction while ascending a grade what CTIS setting
should you be in? - ✔✔-MSS
In regards to turning off T2, T3, R1 what have you just engaged/ disengaged? - ✔✔-Disengaged transaxle
and the front differential
Independent suspension of JLTV uses hydraulic pressure in _______ to maintain wheel to ground
continuously which provides smooth ride over varying terrain... - ✔✔-Roll control circuit (cross
plumbing)
Less traction requires ____in speed - ✔✔-Reduction
