KJ-0334-0

For the welfare vehicles that are modified to have a tailgate lift, the weight sensor that is to detect if a wheel chair is loaded has an exposed switch terminal. If a hook of the shock absorber spring breaks, the spring may touch the switch terminal, and in the worst case, the lift might operate even when the operational switch is not manually operated.
