1991 300TE Hatch close-assist not working

Been a while since I've been on here and posted.
First of all, Very sad to hear about Phil. So true what his daughter said about him...he always made me feel like an old friend just from calling him on the phone.

Next up, my 1991 300TE has a seized up rear wiper motor. Every time I pushed the button on the dash it would blow a fuse. Radio out, cig lighter, etc.

I removed the motor to try to clean it up back to working condition. No luck btw...
Ever since I removed it, the auto-close assist feature (whatever its called) on the hatch stopped working. I assumed it was part of of the connection to the wiper motor. Well, I took the motor's gears out so it would at least not blow the fuse anymore then reinstalled the motor on the hatch. Plugged the connector back on, no fuses blown, and still no auto-assist closey thingy. Connections seem OK. All wires attached well.

Any guesses what I did wrong?
