With the HV battery out of the car, the BCM and MCM connected as normal except for connector A on the BCM.
As far as I can tell, everything works, 12V system charge is maintained, but an IMA code will be set. The 12V charge maintenance quits when the engine RPM gets in the >4K range, because the voltage from the IMA motor generator gets too high for the DC/DC converter.
All of this has nothing to do with MIMA. There would be nothing for MIMA to control without the IMA battery anyways.
