Tank lid motor

I have designed a couple of safety features in order no avoid someone driving away with the car when it is connected to the charge cable.
  1. Starting the motor controller is only possible if the tank lid is closed
  2. It is only possible to open the tank lid if the ignition is off
For 1. I will have magnetic contacts the tell the controller if the lid is open or lcosed. For 2. I managed to integrate with the motor that opens the tank lid and disable it when ignition is on.

Connecting a relay on the cable that controls the tank lid motor
