Textbook Question
Chapter 31, Problem 2MC
The PCM checks for a closed throttle plate each time the engine starts. This becomes the base for all throttle settings and can be viewed by looking at the PID with the throttle closed. Which of the following would not cause an abnormal reading and a higher-than-normal idle speed?
a. A bad TP sensor
b. A bad IAC valve
c. Loose or worn throttle plates
d. Excessive noise in the TP or related circuits

Technician A says that many oil pressure
sensors are typically variable resistors that
change resistance based on pressure changes.

box can be used in place of the sensor while
observing the reaction of the oil pressure
gauge on the dash. Who is correct?
Select one:
a. Technician A
b. Technician B
c. Both A and B
d. Neither A nor B
While discussing EGR systems with a differentialpressure feedback electronic (DPFE) sensor: TechnicianA says that the DPFE sensor sends a signal to thePCM in relation to intake manifold pressure.
