False. MIL
A multiplex wiring system prevents separate modules from sharing data.
False. It allows
Computers are able to receive and process only analog signals.
False. Digital signal

Which of the following is a basic function(s) of a computer?
Store information, process information, and send out commands
Which of the following provides input signals to the PCM?
Feedback devices
Tech A says the primary purpose of a multiplexing system is to send and receive multiple analog signals. Tech B says multiplexing uses bus data links. Who is correct?
B only. Multiplexing = digital, Nonmultiplexed = analog
Tech A says static electricity can be discharged safely through a ground wrist strap to prevent damage to sensitive electronic components. Tech B says to avoid touching bare metal contacts to prevent damage. Who is correct?
Both
A typical PCM is capable of doing all of the following except:
Produce input data
Which of the following PCM memory circuits is used to store specific calibration information?
PROM = programmable read only memory
Control loop operation enables the engine to make rapid adjustment to match changes in engine:
Temperature, load, speed
Which of the following is a computer-controlled actuator?
EGR vent solenoid, EVAP canister purge solenoid, AIR bypass solenoid.
Tech A says the oxygen sensor provides the major input during open loop mode. Tech B says the engine coolant temperature sensor does not affect open loop mode operation. Who is correct?
Neither
While discussing PCM memory, Tech A says the RAM normally contains the specific information about the vehicle in which it is installed. Tech B says EEPROM is erased if the power source is disconnected. Who is correct?
Neither
Tech A says the MAP sensor input is used to control the fuel and EGR systems. Tech B says the MAP sensor is used to control the ignition and idle speed systems? Who is correct?
Both
Pulse width is being discussed. Tech A says that pulse width is the on and off cycling of an electrical circuit. Tech B says the cycling time varies depending upon the needs of the output circuit. Who is correct?
Neither. Pulse width is only "on" cycling.
Tech A says an air conditioning pressure switch is used as a PCM input to determine engine load and control engine idle speed. Tech B says the air conditioning switch measures barometric pressure and sends a altitude input signal to the PCM. Who is correct?
A only. MAP sensor measures barometric pressure
Which of the following is best checked with an ohmmeter?
