I have a Bose Wave AWRCC1 that does not respond to three different remotes I have. Thte unit powers up, says "Please wait" then shows time for about ten minutes then starts playing a radio station all of the sudden. This behavior happens each time the unit is powered up.

What if anything can I do to try and troubleshoot this?

Thanks

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.
