The circuit breaker at a power seat motor continuously trips: Technician A says that this could be caused by a seat track problem that is causing mechanical resistance. Technician B says that this could be caused by corrosion at the motor, which is causing electrical re-sistance. Who is correct?
hile discussing NTC thermistors; Technician A says that some systems use this type of thermistor as a protection device. Technician B says that when there is high current in a circuit, the resistance of the thermistor increases and causes a decrease in current flow. Who is correct?
When discussing the reasons why a change from 12 V to 42 V batteries is likely
in the future, Technician A says this will produce an increase in power for an
increased range of accessories. Technician B says this will provide an increase in
power but also an increase in maintenance. Who is right?
1. A only.
2. B only.
3. Both A and B.
4. Neither A nor B.
