WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2018 Lincoln Navigator. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
Normal Operations and Fault Conditions
The interior door handle is connected to the door latch by an actuating cable. When the interior door handle is pulled, the cable pulls on the latch lever. When the latch lever is moved, the door latch releases, allowing the door to open. The handle has a return spring to make sure the handle returns to a closed position.
Possible Causes
- Binding cable
- Broken handle return spring
- Door latch
- Interior door handle
