I believe the flip-flop isn't resetting OR it's related to the undervoltage lockout.

My next test will be to remove R14, and put in a LARGER resistor, thus lowering the overcurrent trip point. Then I'll take a drive, and if it trips almost right away, I'll know the overcurrent shutdown is coming on, and not getting turned back off.
