Sample E609 questions

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

Which A/C component changes low-pressure liquid refrigerant into a low-pressure vapor by absorbing heat from the passenger-compartment air?

  1. Condenser
  2. Evaporator
  3. Compressor
  4. Receiver-drier
WhyThe evaporator is the in-cabin heat exchanger; low-pressure liquid boils (evaporates), absorbing heat from cabin air and leaving as low-pressure vapor.

Technician A says the condenser is on the high side and rejects heat to condense vapor into liquid. Technician B says the evaporator is on the low side and absorbs cabin heat, boiling liquid into vapor. Who is correct?

  1. Technician A only
  2. Technician B only
  3. Both Technicians A and B
  4. Neither Technician
WhyBoth statements correctly describe the two heat exchangers and the sides they operate on.

The A/C blows warm and the compressor clutch never engages. Both the low-side and high-side pressures read equal and low. The MOST likely cause is:

  1. An overcharge
  2. A low refrigerant charge opening the low-pressure cutout switch
  3. A faulty blend door
  4. A restricted orifice tube
WhyA low charge drops static/low-side pressure below the low-pressure switch threshold, which opens the clutch circuit to protect the compressor.
