Technician A says that some ABS wheel speed sensors are used as part of the tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) . Technician B says that the ABS is used as part of the hill assist system. Which technician is correct?

A. Technician A
B. Technician B
C. Technician A and B
D. Neither A nor B

Answer:

The correct answer is C) Technician A and B are both correct.

Explanation:

An anti-lock braking system (ABS) is a vehicle safety system that allows the wheels of a car to maintain tractive contact with the road surface while braking, preventing the wheels from locking up (ceasing rotation) and avoiding uncontrolled skidding. It is an automated system that uses the principles of cadence braking.

Anti-lock braking systems since their invention and introduction, have been improved remarkably in a bid to further improve driver safety and comfort.  Recent technology not only prevents wheel lock up under braking, but can also provide data for the on board navigation system, traction control system, emergency brake assist, hill start assist, electronic stability control and the front-to-rear brake bias. None of the above would be possible without wheel speed sensors.

The Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TMPS) is an electronic system in your vehicle that monitors your tire air pressure and alerts you when it falls dangerously low.

Indirect TPMS works with your car’s Antilock Braking System’s (ABS) wheel speed sensors. If a tire’s pressure is low, it will roll at a different wheel speed than the other tires. This information is detected by your car’s computer system, which triggers the dashboard indicator light.

Answer:

The correct answer is (c): Technicians A and B.

Explanation:

In today's cars the ABS Wheel Sped Sensors are used as part of the tire pressure monitoring systems. Also, the ABS is used as the hill assist system for better traction.  The Tire Pressure Monitoring Systems are required on all new vehicles. Thus the two technicians are right.

Answer:

The correct answer is (c): Technicians A and B.

Explanation:

In today's cars the ABS Wheel Sped Sensors are used as part of the tire pressure monitoring systems. Also, the ABS is used as the hill assist system for better traction.  The Tire Pressure Monitoring Systems are required on all new vehicles. Thus the two technicians are right as for all vehicles the ABS Wheel Speed Sensors are useful in hill assist as well as tire pressure monitoring.
