MIB high – Repeated loss of sound
Model:
Octavia III

Loss of sound of the infotainment system
No fault is stored in the MIB (5F) fault
memory
Fault cause:
Printed circuits were improperly
assembled on the control units with the
hardware version 42 and higher at the
supplier.
Measure introduced for ŠKODA AUTO in
our vehicles since CW 45/14
A possible fault of loudspeakers or their
connection is to be ruled out – in such a
case other problems are involved.

Replacing control unit with a part after the measure
Note:
It is always necessary to examine/verify the information/claims from the customer and document the
respective complaint with video material
To be applied ONLY for vehicles without the CANTON Sound System
Always verify the fault by playing e.g. an intact CD or files on a SD card. The videos showing the
operation in the RADIO mode may not be necessarily conclusive, as the signal coverage may not be
available in the respective location
Always make sure that the given control unit was really manufactured in the time period concerned –
with the respective hardware, i.e. manufactured until 9/11/2014 with H42 and higher (to be found out
looking at the series number: see Figure with the only example of a unit from 08/06/2014, hardware
