Research focus: verify platform/generation, powertrain/energy/driveline and market-specific application identity against manufacturer/source records before applying parts, service procedures or chronic-fault claims.

System map

• ICE, HV/48 V, 12 V, DC-DC, motor-generator, regeneration and thermal management are layers of one energy chain.
• HV battery, BMS, isolation, inverter, OBC/DC-DC, 12 V and thermal management are separate evidence chains.
• CVT, D-CVT, IVT and e-CVT are not the same mechanism; identify belt/chain, planetary, motor-generator and hydraulic architecture.

Measurement and verification sequence

1. Compare SoC, cell deviation, DC-DC output, motor torque request, regeneration and ICE engagement conditions in one capture.
2. During READY/charging, monitor pack temperatures, cell delta, isolation, 12 V and charging-power curve together.

Misdiagnosis traps

• Displayed range or one SoH value alone does not prove battery health.
• Wrong fluid/procedure or transmission-family identity distorts fault and fitment diagnosis.

Variant-specific system split

• ICE, 12 V, HV/48 V, DC-DC, motor-generator and thermal management are separate control layers; energy flow is aligned with the fault event.
• In an EV, HV battery/BMS, contactor-HVIL/isolation, inverter-motor, OBC/DC-DC, 12 V and cooling circuits are separate evidence branches.
• CVT belt/chain-pulley architecture is not conflated with e-CVT planetary/motor-generator architecture.
• On AMT/heavy-duty driveline, clutch actuator, gear selector, air/hydraulic supply and engine-torque messages are evaluated synchronously.

Freeze frame / live data

• Freeze frame: first/last fault time, RPM, load, vehicle speed, system voltage, core temperatures and companion DTCs.
• Electrified layer: SOC/SOH where available, cell delta, pack temperatures, HVIL/isolation, contactor permission, DC-DC output and 12 V voltage.
• Driveline: input/output speeds, commanded/actual ratio, clutch/TCC slip, fluid temperature, actuator/solenoid command and adaptations.

Root-cause split

• For READY/charging faults, separate 12 V supply from the HV permission chain first; low 12 V can mimic contactor/HVIL/isolation faults.
• For battery performance, use cell delta, temperature spread and voltage deviation under load/charge instead of one SoH percentage alone.
• For CVT ratio faults, identify the architecture first; e-CVT motor-generator power split and belt/chain CVT hydraulic-pulley faults do not share the same diagnostic tree.
• For AMT no-shift, verify clutch position, selector position and air/hydraulic supply separately from the engine-torque message.

What should be verified first?

Model name alone is insufficient. Do not generalize parts fitment, chronic issues or service procedures until production period, market, platform/generation, powertrain, transmission and controller identity are matched.
