Problem overview

Some Lincoln Continental owners report experiencing issues with rear door switches malfunctioning from the outside, along with both handles being inoperable. These problems may stem from a power feed issue, as indicated by the absence of a clicking relay sound when checking the driver's door switches and rear switches. Additionally, some owners find that specific fault codes, such as DTC B147F and/or B1483, may be present in the door latch control module, which can contribute to the malfunction. Systematic troubleshooting is crucial to identify the root cause and determine the best solution for restoring the functionality of the rear door switches and handles.
