    I checked resistance with one lead onto a ground and the other was on one of three of the MG wires. I tested them one at a time.

    I also checked resistance between the three wires as well and got 0.

    I want to say I believe you're supposed to use both test leads on two of the three wires at a time like you're testing a stator. I don't think you want to go to ground. I know on my motorcycle in the test manual when I'm testing the stator which makes the voltage to charge my battery I'm supposed to test between the three legs not to ground I don't know if it's the same for the motor generator affair.

    UPDATE:
    Some good news. I changed out MG1 by tilting the transmission (didnt remove it). I loosened up the trans mount and lowered the subframe a bit.
    (photo attached)
    I swapped in MG1 from my previous transmission. Car drives great. Turns on and off. However now I have a code for hybrid battery cell #11 going bad lol just ordered 2 used ones from ebay for $25 each.

    No more P0AA6 613!
