I lost my remote for the Bose Wave System I. If I wanted to get one on ebay, what do I look for? I chatted with a customer service agent and they said to get a universal remote. Do I need to buy remotes that explicitly have the word "universal" in the listing?

I've got one of those Bose Wave radio/CD units. It's around 20 years old (I can't remember exactly).
Recently, the unit has stopped responding to the remote control (and there is no way to control it without the remote).
The clock on the front panel works fine, but if I try to turn the unit on, the display blanks momentarily, then shows PLEASE WAIT, which blinks a few times, and then the clock display returns.
Oddly, the alarm clock controls work just fine -- I can set the time, and change the radio station that plays at the alarm time. But that's it.
It's not the remote. I tried the remote on another similar (but much newer) unit in another room, and it works just fine. And I tried the remote from that working unit on the non-functioning unit, and I got the same result with both remotes.
Any ideas? The model number is AWRCC2, if that helps.
Thanks -- any suggestions much appreciated.
