    Why not bypass it by making it a solid conductor and put a thermal overload fuse on the supply?

    The thermal fuse or bi-metal strip (as they used to be called) is required to open circuit when it reached the end of it's travel, allowing it to only travel in the other direction.

    Actually the thermal fuse will only open if you continue driving against the end stop for too long, drawing excess current. The fuse should re-set (after 35 seconds) according to RAVE.
