What does this fault code mean?
The audio control module (AUD) checks the signal from the active noise cancellation microphone on the driver side. The code is set if the signal is too low, most often because the signal wire is shorted to ground or the two microphone wires have shorted together. It is checked while the module is powered and usually gives no noticeable symptoms.
Possible causes
- Signal wire between the module and the microphone shorted to ground
- Short circuit between the two microphone signal wires
What you can do
