BOSE SoundLink Mini with FLASHING RED LIGHT (NOT charging) | How To Replace Battery | Can I FIX It?

[@Cik2001]

I am having one that I fixed after many attempts. It couldn't power on the amplifier, so no sound. Believe that other similar symptoms are related to it. The ribbon connector on I/O board was oxydated. This is the small board you attached the power supply, sound input etc. Just carefully remove the back mesh and the green board is well exposed. The white ribbon connector is tapped with some gray sponge,

I’m having a problem with the red blinking light, and even buying a new battery didn’t solve it. I’m having trouble understanding what you mean by removing the back mesh.

[@Cik2001]

@@donnaeckes5801 remove the battery. Carefully remove the back side of speaker which is the metal mesh like in the front. Then you will have the access to the ribon cable connector located on side power board. The connector is hidden behind the black sponge. Scratch it out and slide out the ribon cable from the connector. The cable contacts get oxydated and need to be cleaned with very fine sand paper. Put the cable back into connector and this should fix the problem at least in my case.

[@aggiesoft]

I ended up doing a reset and that still brought me to the blinking red blinking power LED. I ordered a replacement battery and in the meantime, I just let the red blinking go until the unit stopped blinking red (it took a day or 2 - while waiting for the replacement battery). Ironically, just for kicks, I tried to plug the source into the Bose speaker's headphone jack after it stopped blinking red and powered it back on and it was working again just like normal. I do still have the replacement speaker battery just in case, but I figured I'd post this information anyway. Hopefully this helps someone... 😉

[@clement7648]

The issue was fixed with the jack ??

[@sithvaultboy]

This worked for me. I also saw your first video, even though it did not work for me, I was not upset at it. At least I learned there is hard reset for these things. Mine was sitting on the dock unused for about a year. Then a few weeks back, I saw the red light blinking. I dont know if having it charging and never using it could have killed the battery. Either way, I am disappointed that if the battery is dead, the device is essentially unusable, even if directly plugged in. Seems like a wasteful design oversight. Thanks for the video!

[@ruk5258]

Yay! The mute button reset worked when I kept the unit plugged in. (I had previous tried it unplugged, then I found this video.) Thank you!

[@printer1105]

Mine did this and I held the power button down for ten seconds and it worked ..its charging and going strong after 3 yrs. Ive had a few problems with the battery but its always been fixable without replacing the battery.

Hi mine Is flashing Yellow even if i put on charge do you think it's the battery? Sometimes no sound, sometimes sound Just for a 5 minutes and if i increase the volume It stop working

[@petermalta1248]

I found that if you lift the unit off the charging base, then replace it several times it will start flashing orange, if only for a second. Continue doing this (i.e. that is lifting the unit off and replacing it), the orange light starts flashing a little longer each time. Until it stays orange and recharges completely.

[@Marc-ls1qo]

This actually worked! Thanks for the tip!

[@tieuthanhthu8410]

Hi, thank you for making good video! My bose soundlink mini having a different problem. All lights were on and solid, no flashing. The light above the power button showed yellow and full battery. The light above the mute and aux button were also on, and they were white. The light above the bluetooth button was on too, and it was blue. They will be on if I connect to a charger. If I unplug it, everything went off. Do you have any idea?

[@laurasscorpio4061]

After many attempts, mine got to this exact position. Bose just wants to sell me a new unit as they no longer support or have oarts for this model. Uhmm no thanks I think I will try a different brand.

youve got different battery connection mine is not removable it has connected soldered the wire permanently to the pcb board and cannot take it off easily not like yours can take off the whole battery not sure what different model if its soindlink one or 2 or more older.

Thanks to you I replace the battery and the red light is no there, yay!!!! But I got a new problem: the orange light is turn on (charging I think) but no beep sound on start. I let it charge for a few hours, but still without any sound on start or song. Also, I try to reset pressing the mute button 10 secs with the same result, no beep on the start or any sound.

[@StezStixFix]

Hmm, that's odd. Maybe try removing the battery, leave for a couple of minutes and reinsert? I'm not sure what else it could be, if you've got the orange light when charging, then it should be good to go! I hope you can get it sorted, let me know how you get on 👍

[@alfredovazquez4022]

@@StezStixFix Yeap, is odd. As you suggested I try to remove the battery and then reinsert after two minutes but still without any sound. Also, I notice something else: the orange light is blinking only when is connected, when I unplug the AC cable the Soundlink is turn off immediately, and I can't turn on if is not connected. Any thoughts about this behaviour?

[@StezStixFix]

I don't think I've seen that before. Maybe try rebooting the system processor (slightly different from a reset): Connect the speaker to power Press and hold the Multi-function button for 10 seconds While continuing to hold the Multi-function button, unplug the speaker from power Release the Multi-function button Try that and see how you get on!

​@@StezStixFix Thanks for your help, this is happening on a Soundlink 1, is the same process?

[@StezStixFix]

Ah, yes sorry, you can only reset the 2 with this method. Instead, try this; Plug soundlink in to wall charger - Hold down the play/pause button for 15 seconds. - Then, BEFORE releasing the play/pause button, unplug the charge cord from the unit. - Release the button - Plug the unit back into the wall charger. - Press the power button, and see if it powers on.

Hi. Check this out. the problem: red blinking light or 4 white leds stays on, is because the device is not detecting the battery. Fix: connect the charger. if no lights are shown, change the charger 12v 1amp. Use any generic one like from a router or so. If red light blinking or 4 white leds stays on again with the generic charger, take out the original battery (4screws), wait 2 minutes and put the battery back in. try to charge it. If red light blinking or 4 white leds stays on again, your battery is dead. Nothing to do. its just e-waste battery. Put the battery in to the trash. At this point, for fixing it: bose mini1 has 2 different battery types, serial 061xxx and serial 063xxx. both are not interchangeable. If you have 061 you are lucky, just buy any generic chinese battery and it will work. If you have 063 then you are out of luck, because this model has internal chip locked by bose and will not work the chinese 061 replacement. be careful because the chinese ppl will tell you that they are compatible when is not true. (i bought 8 of this chinese batteries and can tell you by experience). The only way to fix a 063 model is to buy an original one. Bose charges $50 for replacement and service US only.

Hi Benedict, sorry to hear that you're still having problems. These Soundlinks (The Version 1 in particular) seem to have many problems. If you've tried resetting, a new battery etc. then it is likely that your firmware is corrupt.

You are star! It worked! Wondering if I can use 12v adapter all the time?

[@danydepp8487]

@@arunask3689 Sure you can, the original one is also 12v but 0.883Amp, so is secure to use 12v 1Amp. The most important part is not to be bigger tan 1Amp, and ofcourse keep it in 12v.

Thank You for your info sir.... :) ... I always used a 7.4v original charger and every time I play my bose, automatically stops while the volume is in max. You are a life saver... No more thinking about buying bose revolve :)

Wrong! Doesn't work for some.

Guess there is a pair of 18650 lithium cells in that proprietary Bose unit.
