and a motor control module operatively connected to the first and second switched non-current-limiting paths, to the first and second switched current-limiting paths, and to the voltage sensor, the motor control module being configured for: a) initiating a start procedure in response to receiving a command for the start procedure, b) after a), during the start procedure, selectively closing the first switched current-limiting path, c) after b), during the start procedure, in response to a magnitude of the output voltage (V out) being less than a first voltage threshold (V low_th), opening the first switched current-limiting path and closing the second switched current-limiting path, d) after c), during the start procedure, in response to the magnitude of the output voltage being less than the first voltage threshold, closing the first switched current-limiting path, e) after d), during the start procedure, in response to the magnitude of the output voltage increasing to meet or exceed a second voltage threshold (V op_th) greater than the first voltage threshold, closing the first and second switched non-current-limiting paths. a contactor module, comprising: a first switched non-current-limiting path connectable between a first polarity of the battery and a first polarity (+) of the power stage of the vehicle, a first switched current-limiting path mounted in parallel with the first switched non-current-limiting path, a second switched non-current-limiting path connectable between a second polarity of the battery and a second polarity (-) of the power stage of the vehicle, a second switched current-limiting path mounted in parallel with the second switched non-current-limiting path, a first switched non-current-limiting path connectable between a first polarity of the battery and a first polarity (+) of the power stage of the vehicle, a first switched current-limiting path mounted in parallel with the first switched non-current-limiting path, a second switched non-current-limiting path connectable between a second polarity of the battery and a second polarity (-) of the power stage of the vehicle, a second switched current-limiting path mounted in parallel with the second switched non-current-limiting path, a voltage sensor configured for measuring an output voltage (V out) of the contactor module between the first and second polarities of the power stage of the vehicle;
