Audio Microphone – Jeep JK Wrangler (2010–2016) | Part No. 1MW170X9AA

If your JK Wrangler's hands-free calling is muffled, cutting in and out, or the person on the other end can't hear you clearly, the cabin microphone is almost always the culprit. This is the correct OEM-spec replacement microphone for the Jeep JK Wrangler, covering both the 3.8L and 3.6L engine variants from 2010 through to 2016.

The microphone is a small but critical component of the JK's Uconnect hands-free phone system. It's typically mounted in the overhead console or headliner area and picks up the driver's voice for Bluetooth calls. Over time, the microphone element degrades, connectors corrode, or the unit simply fails — resulting in poor call quality that no amount of volume adjustment will fix.

Compatible Models

  • Jeep Wrangler JK 3.8L (2010–2011)
  • Jeep Wrangler JK 3.6L (2011–2016)

Common Failure Symptoms

  • Callers reporting they can't hear you or that your voice is muffled
  • Hands-free calls cutting in and out
  • No microphone input detected by the Uconnect system
  • Crackling or static during phone calls
  • Voice commands not being recognised by the system

Benefits of Replacing

A new microphone restores clear, reliable hands-free calling — important for both convenience and road safety. It's a straightforward, low-cost fix that avoids the frustration of unusable Bluetooth functionality on an otherwise well-equipped JK.

Fitting Tips

  • The microphone is typically located in the overhead console — removal of the console trim panel is usually required for access.
  • Disconnect the battery before working on any audio or electrical components.
  • The connector is a simple plug-and-play replacement — no programming or coding is required after installation.
  • Check the wiring harness for damage or corrosion at the connector before fitting the new unit.

Customer FAQs

Q: Will this fix my Uconnect hands-free calling issues?
A: If the problem is a failed or degraded microphone element, yes. If the issue is with the Uconnect module itself or the Bluetooth antenna, the microphone replacement alone may not resolve it. The microphone is the most common cause of poor hands-free call quality on the JK.

Q: Does this require any programming after installation?
A: No — this is a direct plug-and-play replacement. No dealer programming or coding is required.

Q: Is this compatible with both the 2-door and 4-door JK?
A: Yes — the microphone is the same unit across both JK body styles for the listed years (2010–2016).
