Technician A says that most new vehicles have ABS. Technician B says that ABS minimizes wheel lockup (skidding) by using sensors at each wheel (or in the differential) to monitor wheel speed. Who is correct?
A
B
BOTH
NEITHER
Technician A says that moisture and dirt do not harm brake fluid. Technician B says that moisture, dirt, and air are considered brake fluid contaminates. Who is correct?
A
B
BOTH
NEITHER
Technician A says on vehicles that have disc and drum brakes, the drum brakes are always on the front of the vehicle. Technician B says that it is common to have drum brakes on all four wheels on new vehicles. Who is correct?
A
B
BOTH
NEITHER
Technician A says that the master fluid reservoir is where the brake fluid is stored and checked. Technician B says that if you don’t have brake fluid, windshield washer fluid can be used as a substitute. Who is correct?
A
B
BOTH
NEITHER
Technician A says that brake fluid never needs to be serviced. Technician B says that it is important to change brake fluid as recommended by the manufacturer to remove contaminates from the system. Who is correct?
A
B
BOTH
NEITHER
Technician A says that rear-wheel drive vehicles usually get better traction than front-wheel drive vehicles. Technician B says that front-wheel drive vehicles get extremely good traction due to the weight of the engine and transaxle. Who is correct?
A
B
BOTH
NEITHER

A
B
BOTH
NEITHER
Technician A says that one benefit of a CVT over an automatic transmission is that it improves fuel economy. Technician B says that one benefit of a CVT over an automatic transmission is that it provides a smooth ride since there is no gear shifting hesitation or jolt. Who is correct?
A
B
BOTH
NEITHER
