Original Microphone not working on new stereo

[benjacontreras]

Hello! So I recently upgraded my fabia ambiente 2016 stereo to une that has carplay, but I couldn’t get the original microphone worked, does someone knows what can I do? (All photos attached)

In these pictures I do not see microphone connection at all. Pls check if microphone (goes to pins 1 and 7 of blue plug in original QuadLock) are re-wired to the new unit. But even if it does there might be an issue of new unit supporting microphones of other specification than the OEM one.

As I stated in your original post you cant use the original mic. You need to wire in an aftermarket mic that plugs into lead no.9 mic input on the wiring diagram. 

 

 

I cant tell from the photo if the mic is a 2.5mm or a 3.5mm audio jack but if you can plug an aux / headphones into the no.9 plug it'll be a 3.5. 

 

You will need to order one of these. - https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32868201267.html?spm=a2g0o.productlist.0.0.61183addcniB9L&algo_pvid=ff1eb2d0-261c-492e-a67a-66dcca6064e5&algo_exp_id=ff1eb2d0-261c-492e-a67a-66dcca6064e5-1&pdp_ext_f={"sku_id"%3A"65567372809"}&pdp_pi=-1%3B1.37%3B-1%3B-1%40salePrice%3BGBP%3Bsearch-mainSearch
