Antwort anzeigen
Antwort: C. It controls when the compressor cuts in and cuts out
The governor tells the compressor when to start (cut in) and stop (cut out) pumping air into the system.

Frage 4 von 20
When measuring applied push rod stroke, what pressure should the gauges show?
- 380 to 414 kPa (55 to 60 psi)

Frage 6 von 20
About how much air pressure is needed to fully release (hold off) spring brakes?
- 69 kPa (10 psi)
- 207 kPa (30 psi)
- 1000 kPa (145 psi)
- 414 kPa (60 psi)
Antwort anzeigen
Antwort: D. 414 kPa (60 psi)
Spring brakes need about 414 kPa (60 psi) to be fully released. Below that, the springs start to apply the brakes.

The trailer supply valve has a red, eight-sided push-pull knob.
Frage 8 von 20
You hold a Class D licence and want a Z endorsement. Who must give your air brake course?
- A private instructor with no approval
- Any online provider
- A community college only
- A vehicle fleet owner
Antwort anzeigen
Antwort: D. A vehicle fleet owner
Holders of B, C, D, E, F or G licences must take the course through a fleet owner. Class A holders upgrading may use any of the three provider types.
Frage 9 von 20
In a dual air brake system, what happens if one circuit fails?
- All the brakes release at once and cannot be applied
- The trailer uncouples automatically from the tractor
- The other circuit should still be able to stop the vehicle
- The engine shuts off and the vehicle coasts to a stop
Antwort anzeigen
Antwort: C. The other circuit should still be able to stop the vehicle
Dual systems split air into primary and secondary circuits so one can still stop the vehicle if the other fails.
Frage 10 von 20
Where should you do the mechanical part of the air brake inspection?
- In a live traffic lane with your four-way flashers on
- On a hill, so the brakes are under load while you check them
- Anywhere, with the engine running at high rpm
- On level ground, away from traffic, with the engine off and wheels chocked
Antwort anzeigen
Antwort: D. On level ground, away from traffic, with the engine off and wheels chocked
Park on level ground away from traffic, shut off the engine, apply the spring brakes and chock the wheels.
Frage 11 von 20
What is a DD3 chamber?
- A spring brake chamber with a caging bolt, used only on trailers
- A bus and coach brake chamber with three air connections and no large spring
- A diesel fuel filter used on buses and motor coaches
- A double-diaphragm gauge that shows two pressures at once
Antwort anzeigen
Antwort: B. A bus and coach brake chamber with three air connections and no large spring
DD3 chambers are used on buses and coaches. They have three air connections and no large power spring.
Frage 12 von 20
What is a wig wag?
- A gauge that measures push rod stroke at each wheel
- A warning arm that drops into view when air pressure is low
- A valve under each air tank that drains water and oil
- A type of automatic slack adjuster used on trailers
Antwort anzeigen
Antwort: B. A warning arm that drops into view when air pressure is low
A wig wag drops into the driver's view when system pressure falls too low.
Frage 13 von 20
Before testing the low air warning, the system should have at least what pressure?
- 1000 kPa (145 psi)
- 207 kPa (30 psi)
- 621 kPa (90 psi)
- 414 kPa (60 psi)
Antwort anzeigen
Antwort: C. 621 kPa (90 psi)
Build pressure to at least 621 kPa (90 psi), turn the ignition on, then press and release the brake pedal until the warning comes on.
Frage 14 von 20
What is brake fade?
- The low air warning slowly fading out
- Paint wearing off the brake drums over time
- Overheated brakes losing power, so you must push harder
- A slow leak in one of the air tanks
Antwort anzeigen
Antwort: C. Overheated brakes losing power, so you must push harder
As brake parts overheat, they work less well and you must push harder on the pedal.
Frage 15 von 20
When you close the trailer supply valve during the test, what should the trailer spring brakes do?
- Release
- Stay as they were
- Apply
- Lock the tractor's steering
Antwort anzeigen
Antwort: C. Apply
Trailer spring brakes must apply when the trailer supply valve is closed. If they do not, the system is defective.
Frage 16 von 20
About how long is the delay between pressing the brake pedal and the air brakes applying?
- There is no delay with air brakes
- About 10 seconds
- Up to about half a second
- About 5 seconds
Antwort anzeigen
Antwort: C. Up to about half a second
Air takes time to travel through the lines, so there is a split-second delay of up to about one-half second.
Frage 17 von 20

Antwort: D. 41 kPa (6 psi)
A tractor with two or more trailers may lose no more than 41 kPa (6 psi) per minute.
Frage 18 von 20
What is the usual difference between the governor's cut-out and cut-in pressures?
- 345 to 414 kPa (50 to 60 psi)
- 138 to 173 kPa (20 to 25 psi)
- 690 kPa (100 psi)
- 7 to 14 kPa (1 to 2 psi)
Antwort anzeigen
Antwort: B. 138 to 173 kPa (20 to 25 psi)
The cut-in pressure is usually 138 to 173 kPa (20 to 25 psi) below the cut-out pressure.
Frage 19 von 20
What is the typical normal operating range of an air brake system?
- 380 to 414 kPa (55 to 60 psi)
- 690 to 828 kPa (100 to 120 psi)
- 1035 to 1200 kPa (150 to 175 psi)
- 138 to 311 kPa (20 to 45 psi)
Antwort anzeigen
Antwort: B. 690 to 828 kPa (100 to 120 psi)
Most systems run between 690 and 828 kPa (100 to 120 psi).
Frage 20 von 20
In a dual air system, where does air go after the supply (wet) tank?
- Into the fuel tank to help push the fuel
- Straight to the exhaust, then out of the vehicle
- Into the primary and secondary (dry) tanks
- Back into the compressor to be pumped again
Antwort anzeigen
Antwort: C. Into the primary and secondary (dry) tanks
Air from the supply tank is split into the primary and secondary dual-service tanks.
