- A hot-wire MAF has low resistance across it when the wire is hot: Technician A says that this condition will cause the engine to stall as soon as you put the transmission into gear. Technician B says that this condition will cause the transmission to shift late. Who is correct?arrow_forwardWhen discussing the possible causes for a shudder during acceleration, Technician A says that a worn inner CV joint could be the cause. Technician B says that insufficient differential gear backlash could be the cause of the problem. Who is correct? O a. A only O b. B only O c. Both A and B O d. Neither A nor Barrow_forwardTechnician A says that some systems use a special modulated shift control solenoid. Technician B says that some systems use a special modulated converter clutch control solenoid. Who is correct? Technician A says that shift solenoids direct fluid flow to and away from the apply devices in the transmission. Technician B says that shift solenoids are used to mechanically apply a friction brake or multiple-disc clutch assembly. Who is correct? Technician A says that throttle position is an important input in most electronic shift control systems. Technician B says that vehicle speed is an important input for most electronic shift control systems. Who is correct? Technician A says that a faulty TP sensor can cause delayed shifts. Technician B says that delayed shifts can be caused by an open shift solenoid. Who is correct? Technician A says that some shift solenoids can be activated by providing a ground for the solenoid.

- A discussion concerning CV joint testing is being held. Technician A says that a recommended method to check CV joints is to raise the vehícle so that the lower control arms are hanging freely; at this point the engine can be accelerated while noise checks can be performed. Technician B says that the vehicle should be road tested so that the CV joints can be checked under load. Who is correct? O a. A only O b. B only c. Both A and B d.
