AI Explanation
The correct answer is D) All of the above. Expansion valve maintenance should include all of the procedures listed: ensuring the thermal bulb is in good contact with the suction line and insulated, checking that the thermal bulb is in the proper location, and cleaning any in-line strainers as necessary.
