Straight from the bank — answers highlighted, with the explanation underneath.

Under the federal KKK-A-1822 / NFPA ambulance classifications, a Type II ambulance is best described as which of the following?

  1. A cutaway van chassis fitted with a separate modular patient body
  2. A standard van or panel-body vehicle with an integral (non-modular) patient compartment
  3. A conventional truck cab-chassis fitted with a separate modular patient body
  4. A medium-duty truck chassis with a walk-through modular body
WhyA Type II ambulance is a van conversion with an integral body (e.g., Sprinter/Transit). A cutaway chassis with a modular box is a Type III, and a conventional truck cab-chassis with a modular body is a Type I.

Two technicians are discussing an ambulance's 12-volt electrical system. Technician A says the charging system must be capable of carrying the minimum continuous electrical load with the engine at idle or fast idle. Technician B says a load-management (load-shedding) system may automatically disconnect non-critical loads to protect the batteries. Who is correct?

  1. Technician A only
  2. Technician B only
  3. Both Technicians A and B
  4. Neither Technician
WhyNFPA ambulance standards require the alternator/charging system to support the minimum continuous electrical load at idle, and permit load managers to shed low-priority circuits as battery voltage drops. Both statements are correct.

A fully loaded Type I ambulance returns from a mountain call. The driver reports that near the bottom of a long grade the pedal became soft and stopping power dropped, but everything felt normal the next morning. Which is the MOST LIKELY cause?

  1. Brake fluid boiled (vaporized) from sustained heat, worsened by fluid neglected past its flush interval
  2. A cracked rotor
  3. A stretched parking-brake cable
  4. A failed ABS pump motor
WhyA soft, fading pedal that appears only under sustained downhill heat and then recovers when cool is classic fluid vaporization, and old moisture-laden fluid boils at a lower temperature. A cracked rotor, cable, or ABS pump would not come and go with heat.
