Question 1

Technician A says the Mercedes-Benz 7G-Tronic was the first seven-speed automatic transmission. Technician B says this unit allows the electronic control unit to "skip" gears when upshifting or downshifting. Who is correct?

Accepted Answer

Technician A is correct that the Mercedes-Benz 7G-Tronic was the first seven-speed automatic transmission. Technician B is also correct that this unit allows the electronic control unit to "skip" gears when upshifting or downshifting. Therefore, both technicians are correct.

Question 2

Technician A says that the RFE Series uses seven control devices. Technician B says that the RFE Series uses seven solenoids and five pressure switches. Who is correct?

Accepted Answer

The RFE Series indeed uses seven solenoids for control, but it also incorporates five pressure switches as part of its control devices, making both Technician A and Technician B correct in their statements.

Question 3

____________________ are simple on and off solenoids that control upshifts and downshifts in all forward gear ranges.

Accepted Answer

The answer of ____________________ are simple on and off solenoids...

Question 4

The ____________________ directs fluid flow according to shift solenoid operation, actuator feed pressure, and return spring force to control 1-2 and 2-1 shifts.

Accepted Answer

The answer of The ____________________ directs fluid flow according to...

Question 5

Technician A says that a solenoid that is controlled by a computer is switched on or off on the ground side of the circuit. Technician B says a Chrysler-built unit, when operating in "limp-in" mode, will allow operation in all gear ranges but at reduced efficiency. Who is correct?

Accepted Answer

Technician A is correct because it is common for computer-controlled solenoids, including those in automotive applications, to be switched on the ground side of the circuit. This allows the computer to control the solenoid by completing or interrupting the circuit to ground. Technician B is incorrect because when a Chrysler-built unit operates in "limp-in" mode, it typically restricts the transmission to operate in only one gear (often second gear) to allow the vehicle to be driven to a repair facility, not in all gear ranges.

Question 15

Technician A says the Chrysler RFE Series uses three brake bands. Technician B says that the RFE Series uses two brake bands. Who is correct?

Accepted Answer

The answer of Technician A says the Chrysler RFE Series...

Question 16

The ____________________ works with the accumulator valve to cushion the direct clutch application by absorbing some of the apply pressure.

Accepted Answer

The answer of The ____________________ works with the accumulator valve...

Question 17

Technician A says that all transmissions have a ATF dipstick and filler tube. Technician B says that some transmissions are equipped with an ATF warmer. Who is correct?

Accepted Answer

Not all transmissions have an ATF dipstick and filler tube; many modern vehicles have sealed transmissions without a dipstick for the user to check fluid levels. However, some transmissions are indeed equipped with an ATF warmer to help maintain optimal fluid temperature.
