2008 Prius will NOT move + Code P0A90 Drive Motor “A” Performance

So I was watching a video last night on youtube where a guy takes the engine out (from the top) without removing the inverter or trans and it took them less than 2 hours. I was wondering if it may be worth taking the engine out instead to get to the damper rather than removing transmission since its apparently harder since it comes out the bottom and seen you have to remove the subframe.

 

I just ordered myself a Autel AP200, I hope it works as I am very disappointed my $1700 scanner couldnt do what an apparent $50 scanner will. BTW, yes it is currently $49.99 on sale at the moment if you have Prime on Amazon, down $10 from original price of $59.99
