LV01 Test 2

If the front road wheel is set to tilt inwards at the top it has a:

• Negative Castor
• Positive Camber
• Negative Camber
• Positive Castor

You need to road test a customer's vehicle. Before you start the test it is essential that you:

• Check the tyre pressures, oil level and windscreen washer fluid
• Complete the job card with all details concerning the vehicle repair
• Ensure your work bay is tidy and all tools have been put away
• Check that you hold the correct driver's license for the vehicle

During a vehicle inspection you discover that the tread on the front tyres is 'feathering'. This could indicate that:

• The wheel alignment is incorrect
• The tyre pressures are incorrect
• The swivel pin inclination is wrong
• The power steering is defective

A pulse generator is most commonly found in:

• A fuel system
• An electronic ignition system
• A transmission system
• A chassis ECU

The regulated voltage of an alternator is 13.6 to 14.6 volts at 3000 rpm with the headlamps on. What is the tolerance?

• 13.6V
• 2.6V
• 1.6V
• 1V

An 'aural' vehicle inspection involves:

• Conducting a visual inspection
• Carrying out a functional check
• Checking component clearance
• Listening for unusual noises

The purpose of the brake servo fitted to a car's braking system is to:

• Assist the driver's pedal effort
• Improve the braking friction
• Increase the braking efficiency
• Increase the pedal leverage

The tension of an alternator drive belt is checked by:

• Measuring the maximum voltage across the battery at 2000rpm
• Measuring the deflection of the belt at its longest point
• Measuring the output current when under electrical load
• Measuring the rotation force using a spring balance gauge

Which is not likely to be part of the checks made on the windscreen wiper operation during routine vehicle maintenance?

• Inspecting the condition of the wiper rubber blades
• Check for abnormal noise during the wiping action
• Checking the effectiveness of the wiping action
• Checking the current draw made by the wiper motor during operation

A cut more than 25mm or 10% of the tyre width which exposes the cords:

• Is repairable by patching
• Makes it illegal
• Is only suitable for off road use
• Can be safely plugged
