Technician A says preload refers to the amount of force placed on a bearing before any load is on the bearing. Technician B says free play refers to the distance that a bearing is able to turn before locking up. Who is correct?

Which of the following practices should be followed when disassembling an automatic transmission?

Tech A says that you should inspect all electrical connectors for corrosion during disassembly so that replacement parts can be located if needed. Tech B says that electrical connectors will not corrode because they are submerged in transmission fluid. Who is correct?

Technician A says to always inspect the transmission case for damage or warpage and ensure the vent is unclogged when rebuilding an automatic transmission. Technician B says always inspect bands for damage, wear, or burns when rebuilding an automatic transmission. Who is correct?
