Question

Two Technicians are discussing rotor service on hybrid vehicles. Technician A states if you are planning to use an on-the-car brake lathe, make sure that the regen system is off for at least two minutes. Technician B states Regenerative Braking systems are more tolerant of rotor thickness variation concerns. Who is correct?

Answer 1

Technician A is correct. When using an on-the-car brake lathe for rotor service on hybrid vehicles, it is important to ensure that the regen system (regenerative braking system) is turned off for at least two minutes. This is to prevent any interference or potential damage to the system during the rotor service. It's always important to follow the manufacturer's guidelines and recommendations for proper maintenance and service procedure
