1 / 20

When servicing a 2021 Toyota RAV4 Hybrid high-voltage system, after removing the service plug, the waiting period before touching HV components is:

2 / 20

Fuel pressure testing shows: Key on/engine off: 43 PSI, Idle: 36 PSI, 2500 RPM: 43 PSI, Vacuum line removed: 43 PSI. This indicates:

3 / 20

A/C system pressures read: Low side 55 PSI, High side 180 PSI at 2000 RPM with 90°F ambient. These readings indicate:

4 / 20

A brake pedal feels firm initially but slowly sinks to the floor when held under pressure. Brake fluid level is normal with no visible external leaks. This indicates:

5 / 20

A 2024 Ford F-150 Lightning requires PCM software update. The update fails at 67% completion with error code "Insufficient power during programming." Battery voltage measures 12.8V. The NEXT step should be:

6 / 20

A scan tool communicates with all modules except the ABS module. CAN Bus voltage measures: CAN High: 2.7V, CAN Low: 2.3V with ignition on. This indicates:

7 / 20

Code P0171 appears with P0174 simultaneously on a V6 engine. Fuel trims show Bank 1: +23%, Bank 2: +22%. This pattern indicates:

8 / 20

A 2020 diesel pickup shows DPF regeneration cycles occurring every 150 miles instead of the normal 300-400 miles. This indicates:

9 / 20

When testing a suspected weak battery, the multimeter shows 12.4V with engine off, 14.2V running, and drops to 9.8V during cranking. This indicates:

10 / 20

Parasitic draw measures 180mA. After pulling the PCM fuse, draw drops to 35mA. This indicates:

11 / 20

A vehicle pulls left during driving but tracks straight during braking. Tire wear is even across all positions. The MOST likely cause is:

12 / 20

Vehicle telematics data over 8 months shows: Engine oil temperature increasing 2°F monthly, coolant temperature stable, oil pressure decreasing 1 PSI monthly. This trend suggests:

13 / 20

During a road test, 1-2 shift occurs at 18 MPH instead of specified 15 MPH, and shift feel is firm but not harsh. This indicates:

14 / 20

When detecting a fuel vapor leak during inspection, which action sequence is MOST appropriate?

15 / 20

During inspection, you find a thick, dark red fluid with metallic particles under the transmission. The fluid has a burnt odor. This indicates:

16 / 20

A customer's vehicle shows inner edge wear on front tires after 15,000 miles. Tire pressure has been maintained at door placard specification. The MOST likely cause is:

17 / 20

A 2023 Tesla Model Y shows 8% state-of-charge loss overnight (16 hours) with no apparent loads active. Isolation resistance measures 680 megohms. This indicates:

18 / 20

After replacing a windshield on a 2022 Honda Accord with collision mitigation braking, the calibration procedure requires:

19 / 20

Lab scope shows ignition secondary pattern with spark line duration of 0.8mS, burn time of 1.2mS, and coil oscillations after spark end. This pattern indicates:

20 / 20

Technician A says a contaminated MAF sensor typically causes the PCM to over-fuel the engine. Technician B says a failing MAF sensor usually triggers lean fuel trim corrections. Who is correct?
