Talking hands free

Anyone having trouble with one of the air vents blowing into the hands free speaker while you're trying to talk? I have to turn the air down or the person I'm talking to can't hear me. Just wondering if it's only my truck that does this.

 

Never an issue for me.

Have you messed with the mic settings any?

You can adjust the gain and a few other things.

 

No but in general the road noise, wind coming through leaky weather seals and howling rear diff seems to give the caller trouble hearing me if I'm on the highway

 

No only when I have the windows down, maybe try switching to floor vents when your on the phone?

 

Yes, I always turn the fan off when on the phone. I think the manual recommends it.

SB

 

Try that when it's 115 degrees outside

 

Thx. I believe it's just where the mic is located. It's pretty close to the vent beside the steering wheel. I've never messed with the settings. I'll try that.

 

This.

Same with second gens.

 

The microphone is on top, in the center, where the sunglasses cubby is.

 

^^ This.

Or is it different with different trim levels, perhaps?

 

^^^ This, at least on my '13. Can't really imagine them moving around by trim package.

 

I may be wrong but I believe my mic is just to the left of the start/stop button.

 

The mic is on top where the sunglasses stay.


when on phone call there is a transmit volume button on screen.put it on (-2), it seems to work best.

its the sensitivity of the MIC.

 

whats on left of start button is interior temperature sensor that reads temp for auto AC

 

Ok. Thx. Probably help if my vents are directed down too.

 

Have you tried speaking in a manly voice?

 

You mean like this.

 

This is from the manual and probably applies to phone calls as well. Looks like it's a design "feature."
