Default 12 MKZ Hybrid, Stop Safely Now, Yellow Wrench No Start, P0A78, P1A16, P1A14, P0AFA

I have a low miles 2012 Lincoln MKZ with only 73k miles on the car. One owner that has been overly serviced by the Ford dealership. It currently has a no start condition with a few TCM and PCM codes. I came across Thomas Watson's Post in a different forum regarding shorted wires. I have found different posts regarding one localized code not this many codes.

Has anyone came across similar errors or issues with wiring? This car has been garaged in the desert its whole life so no corrosion or other issues from the weather. I have to give a big shout out to Nick's Mustang Ranch for service manuals and wiring diagrams. He has an easy to use with links service manual, wiring diagram and PC/ED supplement for the 2011 Fusion Hybrid. He also has manuals for the 2014 and 2016 model years also.

Per the PC/ED the P0A78 indicates a new transaxle is needed but I have some other odd codes. I also have a great charge on the hybrid battery so that is not an issue. I have also reset the battery age to reflect it being only a year old.



(OK) [08:18:44.091] Successful DTC reset, DTCs will be read now...
(WARN) [08:18:44.583] DTCs in TCM: P1A16:15-AF, P0A78:87-AF
(WARN) [08:18:44.943] DTCs in PCM: P1000:00-2B, P1A14:00-2B
(WARN) [08:18:45.571] DTCs in ACCM: P0AFA:16-68




These are the general codes in short order regarding the car. Below I have the detailed data from each error message. Has anyone else out there had a similar combination? I was thinking of taking the inverter cover off to see if I could check the stator wires for resistance. I will be looking at the wiring harness to see if there is any damage in the wires.
