Halderman and Tony Martin Figure 11.12A The Honda Civic CVT uses a metal drive chain that operates between two cones called a variator. These two cones have a very smooth surface and can be damaged if dirt gets into one of the units.

Halderman and Tony Martin Figure 11.12B The Honda Civic hybrid CVT transaxle uses a start clutch rather than a torque converter. Because the torque converter, which normally drives a pump to supply hydraulic fluid to the components is not used, the Honda Civic CVT unit uses a chain-driven pump driven by the input shaft.

The thin strip taped alongside the batteries is a temperature sensor used by the battery condition monitor to help determine charging and discharging rate based on the temperature of the batteries. While this sensor cannot detect a failure in any one battery, it is capable of detecting a fault in a single strip of batteries.
