Abstract
A vehicle closure has a deck lid latch that includes a disabling lever that is automatically engaged to disable the deck lid latch when the deck lid latch is unlatched. The disabling lever must be reset manually to restore normal latching operation of the deck lid latch. The disabling lever is reset manually by a control knob that is difficult to operate to avoid inadvertent resetting.
