ASE B-5 Mechanical/Electrical Practice
Exam Questions and Answers
A vehicle is brought in with a bent subframe. Technician A says to
section the subframe. Technician B says the subframe should not
be repaired and must be replaced. Who is right?
A, B, Both, or Neither - Answer✔️✔️-Technician B only
The subframe should never be sectioned, and should rarely, if ever,
be worked. It is typically a bolt-on part that does not lend itself to
traditional straightening methods. Vehicle manufacturers
recommend replacement.
The first step in bleeding brakes is to:
A. check the parking brake adjustment
B. check the master cylinder fluid level
C. start the engine and pump the brakes
D. start the wheel farthest from the master cylinder - Answer✔️✔️-B.
check the master cylinder fluid level
The fluid level will have to be monitored as it is removed during the
process, so always start with a full reservoir. Bleeding the farthest
wheel first is good practice, but not the first thing to do.
Technician A says that negative camber is the tilt of the tire toward
the front of the vehicle. Technician B says that negative camber
means that the top of the tire is tipped in toward the centerline of
the vehicle. Who is right?
A, B, Both, or Neither - Answer✔️✔️-Technician B only
Camber is the inward or outward tip of the tire, as seen from the
front of the vehicle. When a wheel sustains an impact from the side,
the camber is frequently affected.
During A/C refrigerant recovery, 1 oz of oil has been recovered from
the system. Which of these is the correct procedure?
A. return the oil to the system
B. replace the oil with new oil
C. ignore such a small amount of new oil
D. change all the oil in the system - Answer✔️✔️-B. replace the oil
with new oil
New oil should be used to restore the proper amount. Also replace
additional amounts for any components replaced.
A vehicle has positive caster on the right front wheel and zero caster
on the front left wheel. Technician A says this will cause the vehicle
to pull left. Technician B says the vehicle will pull to the right. Who
is right?
A, B, Both, or Neither - Answer✔️✔️-A. Technician A only
The vehicle will always pull to the side with the least amount of
positive caster, or the greatest amount of negative caster.
Caster on one side of a unibody vehicle is out of specification. The
LEAST likely cause is:
A. a misaligned crossmember
B. a bent idler arm
C. a damaged lower control arm
D. a damaged strut rod - Answer✔️✔️-B. a bent idler arm
A bent idler arm is the least likely problem. All the other choices
could cause a caster problem.
After repairing a vehicle, it is found that camber is out of spec on
one side of the vehicle. Technician A says that there might be
suspension mounting locations out of spec. Technician B says that
before adjusting camber, SAI and included angle should be checked
and compared side-to-side. Who is right?
A, B, Both, or Neither - Answer✔️✔️-Both Technician A and B.
A number of conditions can cause a camber reading to be off, such
as damaged parts or a distorted suspension mounting location. A
visual examination of the parts is all that's needed in cases of
severe damage. However, the only way to be sure is to check both
SAI and included angle readings to determine where the damage is.
A driver's side airbag was cut during a collision but did not deploy.
What is the proper action?
A. use plastic repair adhesive to repair the cut and refinish the bag
B. return the bag to the manufacturer for recycling
C. replace the bag with an OEM part, deploy the old bag before
disposal
