Stator is most likely cause.
Where the stator harness comes out from under the flywheel, you'll note multiple GREEN (with various stripe color) wires, and a bundle of white wires.
Check resistance from EACH GREEN wire to white (ground) bundle. Resistance on each wire should be essentially identical.
If one wire is found to be substantially different (or OPEN CIRCUIT), the stator will need to be replaced.
