Protection mode sounds like a short. That would be the first thing I try to look at on the crossover board.
My next thought would be a capacitor gone bad. If they arc inside that can set up a short as well.
Although a short would be present even when the driver was removed. When you say you removed the mid driver, did you just remove the driver itself, or the whole crossover + driver?
If it's only shorting when the driver is in place, you may have a bad driver. Check the DC resistance on it and report back.
good luck.
