Question 1

The occupant classification system must be validated whenever:&#10;A) The seat has been removed from the vehicle.&#10;B)The OCM has been replaced.&#10;C) A new sensor has been installed.&#10;D)All of these choices.

Accepted Answer

According to industry standards and guidelines, the occupant classification system must be validated whenever the seat has been removed from the vehicle, the OCM (Occupant Classification Module) has been replaced, or a new sensor has been installed. Therefore, choice D, which includes all of these options, is the best choice.

Question 2

When servicing an air bag system after a deployment all:&#10;A) Components must be replaced&#10;B) Sensors must be replaced&#10;C) Components must be inspected&#10;D)Clocksprings must be replaced

Accepted Answer

Components must be inspected before determining if they need to be replaced. Some components may be salvageable if undamaged during deployment, while others may need to be replaced. Sensors and clocksprings may or may not need to be replaced depending on the manufacturer's recommendations and any visible damage during inspection.

Question 3

All of the following are components of the air bag module EXCEPT the&#10;A) Squib&#10;B) Coil assembly&#10;C) Explosive charge&#10;D)Bag assembly

Accepted Answer

The air bag module consists of four main components: the squib, the explosive charge, the bag assembly, and the diagnostic monitor. The coil assembly is not a component of the air bag module.

Question 4

The bladder system service kit is required if any of the following requires replacement EXCEPT:&#10;A) The bladder.&#10;B)The BTS.&#10;C) The pressure sensor.&#10;D)The cushion.

Accepted Answer

The answer of The bladder system service kit is required...

Question 5

The purpose of the Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC) is to:&#10;A) Supply back-up power to the system.&#10;B) Determine if there is a fault in the system.&#10;C) Monitor the system.&#10;D)All of these choices.

Accepted Answer

The Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC) serves multiple purposes such as supplying back-up power to the system, determining if there is a fault in the system and monitoring the system. Therefore, the best choice would be D, all of these choices.

Question 6

The PADL is off when the seat is empty. This may indicate:&#10;A) A faulty OCM.&#10;B) Normal operation.&#10;C) The BTS is indicating the seat belt is cinched.&#10;D)All of these choices.

Accepted Answer

The PADL (Passenger Airbag Disable Lamp) is designed to turn off when the seat is empty as it indicates normal operation. Option A is incorrect as a faulty OCM (Occupant Classification System) would result in the PADL staying on, even when the seat is empty. Option C is also incorrect as the BTS (Buckle Tension Sensor) is unrelated to the PADL and is only used to indicate if the seat belt is buckled or unbuckled. Therefore, option B is the correct answer as it indicates normal operation.

Question 7

All of the following are common sensor types EXCEPT:&#10;A) Mass type&#10;B) Roller type&#10;C) Hall-effect type&#10;D)Accelerometer

Accepted Answer

The answer of All of the following are common sensor...

Question 8

The arrow on an air bag sensor must always face the&#10;A) Location of the air bag module&#10;B) Rear of the vehicle&#10;C) Driver's side of the vehicle&#10;D)Front of the vehicle

Accepted Answer

The arrow on an air bag sensor must always face the front of the vehicle, as it is responsible for detecting a collision and triggering the air bag deployment in the direction of impact, which is typically from the front of the vehicle.

Question 9

Which of the following is a characteristic of the strain gauge-type occupant classification system?&#10;A) If the seat is empty, the PADL is illuminated.&#10;B)The system uses a belt tension sensor to determine the presence of an infant seat.&#10;C) The air bag will deploy if a child is determined to be sitting in the seat.&#10;D)None of these choices.

Accepted Answer

The answer of Which of the following is a characteristic...

Question 10

All of the following are characteristics of the occupant classification system EXCEPT:&#10;A)The OCM is responsible for the deployment of the passenger-side air bag.&#10;B)The system is designed to determine if a rear-facing infant seat is being used in the front passenger seat.&#10;C)The PADL illuminates whenever the passenger seat is occupied and the passenger-side air bag is suppressed.&#10;D)Weight classification of fifth percentile female and greater allows air bag deployment.

Accepted Answer

The occupant classification system (OCM) is responsible for determining if the passenger-side airbag should be deployed based on the weight and positioning of the occupant. However, the actual deployment of the airbag is controlled by the airbag control module.
