Question 10

Tech A states that the 4th gear of a 6R60 transmission has a 1.14:1 ratio. Tech B states that the transmission does not have a true 1:1 ratio. Who is correct?

Accepted Answer

The 6R60 transmission's 4th gear typically has a 1.14:1 ratio, and it does not have a true 1:1 ratio in any of its gears.

Question 11

Tech A states that the 6R60 transmission does not utilize a traditional dipstick. Tech B states that the transmission temperature must be around 180˚ F (82˚ C) in order to check the fluid. Who is correct?

Accepted Answer

The 6R60 transmission does not have a traditional dipstick, and the fluid level is typically checked at a specific temperature, around 180˚ F (82˚ C), to ensure accuracy.

Question 12

Tech A states that on a 6R60 transmission the range sensor is a potentiometer that sends a voltage signal back to the PCM. Tech B states that the range sensor uses pressure switches to indicate gear selection. Who is correct?

Accepted Answer

The answer of Tech A states that on a 6R60...

Question 13

You are testing the solenoids from a 6R60 transmission and find that all of the solenoids have a resistance reading of 5.5 ohms except solenoid E which has 10.5 ohms. Tech A states that the solenoids will use more current than normal. Tech B states that the solenoids will use less current than normal. Who is correct?

Accepted Answer

Solenoid E has a higher resistance than the other solenoids, which means it will use less current than the other solenoids.

Question 14

Tech A states that based on the solenoid application chart, the 6R60 transmission does not have a fail-safe gear. Tech B states that 4th gear is a fail-safe gear. Who is correct?

Accepted Answer

The answer of Tech A states that based on the...

Question 15

Tech A states that the 6R60 shift solenoids are pulse width modulated. Tech B states that the shift solenoids are variable force solenoids. Who is correct?

Accepted Answer

The answer of Tech A states that the 6R60 shift...

Question 16

Technician A says that the 6R60 transmission has a short dipstick underneath the fill plug. Technician B says that the transmission fluid level of 6R60 transmission can only be checked with a scan tool. Who is correct?

Accepted Answer

The answer of Technician A says that the 6R60 transmission...

Question 17

Technician A says that the 6R60 transmission has six forward gears and one reverse. Technician B says that six multidisc clutches are used in this transmission. Who is correct?

Accepted Answer

The answer of Technician A says that the 6R60 transmission...

Question 18

Technician A says that some heavy-duty versions of the 6R60 transmission utilizes a one-way roller clutch to help with engine braking. Technician B says that the 6R80 is a heavy-duty versions of the 6R60 transmission. Who is correct?

Accepted Answer

Technician A is correct because some heavy-duty versions of the 6R60 transmission do use a one-way roller clutch for engine braking. Technician B is also correct because the 6R80 is indeed a heavy-duty version of the 6R60 transmission.

Question 19

Technician A says that all pre-2011 transmissions will have a TCM mounted to the transmission valve body. Technician B says that all transmissions are controlled by the PCM, regardless of the year. Who is correct?

Accepted Answer

The answer of Technician A says that all pre-2011 transmissions...

Question 20

Technician A says that all seven shift solenoids are variable force solenoids. Technician B says that all seven shift solenoids are on/off type solenoids. Who is correct?

Accepted Answer

Neither technician is correct because typically, a transmission will have a combination of both variable force solenoids and on/off type solenoids, not all of one type.
