ACTIVE NOISE CONTROL MICROPHONES DISCONNECT. TWO (OR 3) ON EACH CAR
 
4 Attachment(s)
After hours of searching useless websites only to find BAD information, I have found that in my 2017 Mustang EcoBoost Convertible uses TWO microphones, and the Coupe uses THREE to broadcast the engine noise thru the radio speakers.

Both models in 2017 use the trunks' left rear area see all the attachments from the Chilton manual that found,

I will post pictures of the locations when the garage warms up.

Happy Motoring!

the top center console Microphone, to unplug the wire connection from the Mic. you will have to take the Mic. assy out of its holder and disassemble it to unplug the wire connection.

Is that just the Ecoboost models that have the fake exhaust sound? I hope the GT models are exempt. Man, I thought BMW was the only manufacturer creating fake exhaust notes. I guess I am 'out of it'. All I know is I would really dislike that.

I think I read that the "engine noise enhancement started in 2014.

see:https://www.pocket-lint.com/cars/new...-sound-better/

The noise it makes is very annoying to me, but I am 77 years old, and don't want FAKE engine noise.

The Primitive Version was the Sound Tube from the Intake to the Floorboard in 2010! Back in the Day it Was Flipping the Air Cleaner Lid on the Family Sedan! BA WAAAAAA!
