Disable Power Lift

Disable Power Lift
I have to disable the power lift on the trunk so I can safely use the carrier for my handicap scooter.
If I remove the fuse I can't open it manualy.
Also the fuse info says it is also for the "Headlight Washer", I called the dealer service department and they said they
did not have the slightest Idea what that meant, they transferred me to the Parts Dept. and they said some of
the models had headlight washers but he did not sound too sure about it.

CHRYSLER TECH: Yes, that is the fuse, when you remove it the gate will no longer operate BUT you cannot open it manually either.
I had thought about putting a rubber bumper on the deck lid so if it did open it would hit the rack and reverse but it is my wifes car and she is not too thrilled at that Idea. The rack is too heavy to remove and install each time as I am 80 years old and handicapped.
Hmmmm... maybe I could put a bumper on the rack., If the rack was down with the scooter on it I think the deck lid may clear it.
Several times I have reached in my pocket for the keys and the deck would open, the buttons on the remote should have a ridge around them to prevent that.
Have you heard of the "Headlight Washer"?
Thanks for the reply.

RE: Disable Power Lift
Pacs sold in N.A. do not have the headlight washers. Pacs sold in Europe would have the headlight washers. I do find it odd that you can "accidentally" hit the power lift gate button. This button must be pressed twice fairly quickly to work. Also when ever the gate encounters an object it will reverse. The onlt thing I would suggest is that you have the power lift gate motor disconnected.
