One of the first steps in checking the operation of an automatic or semiautomatic HVAC system is to research the system’s operation in the _____, which will give you a good idea of how to perform a thorough testing.
Technical service bulleting
Shop policy manual
Owner’s manual
Technician A says that the benefit of a dual drive air-conditioning compressor is that it can be belt driven or driven by the high-voltage battery. Technician B says that the purpose of the dual drive is to provide two speeds of air-conditioning compressor operation. Who is correct?
Technician A
Technician B
Both Technician A and Technician B
Neither Technician A nor Technician B
In a system equipped with a rear climate control panel, with the rear air control panel selected on the front panel, the rear passengers can typically select _____
Fan speed
Mode
All of the above
Technician A says that when troubleshooting an automatic temperature-controlled air-conditioning or heating problem, one of the first steps should be to check codes for any related faults. Technician B says that codes should only be consulted if you get stuck during diagnosis. Who is correct?
Technician A
Technician B
Both Technician A and Technician B
Neither Technician A nor Technician B
Technician A says that if the air gap between the compressor clutch and the pulley is too large, the clutch may not engage. Technician B says that if system voltage is too low, the compressor clutch will not engage. Who is correct?
Technician A
Technician B
Both Technician A and Technician B
Neither Technician A nor Technician B
The door that is responsible for shutting off outside airflow to the cabin when maximum air-conditioning is selected is the:
Mix door.
Blend door.
Air shut-off door.
Recirculation door.
In the automotive climate control system, the _____ measures the temperature of the outside air.
Cabin air temperature sensor
Sun load sensor
Engine coolant temperature sensor
The temperature sensor is a valuable input to the climate control system’s ECU to ensure that it knows what the temperature is so it can cause the actuators to respond appropriately.
Sun load sensor
Engine coolant sensor
Air-conditioning pressure sensor
The ______ is responsible for circulating air in the passenger compartment.
Condenser fan
Clutch fan
Cooling fan
The compressor in a hybrid air-conditioning system may be driven by the internal combustion engine through a standard belt and _____, just like a standard air-conditioning compressor clutch arrangement on a non-hybrid vehicle.
