Bose Wave Radio not working | Audioholics Home Theater Forums
April 25, 2024 - I purchased a new Bose Wave Radio w/CD slot 2 years ago. This model is the one that operates only by remote. Been working great until today when I went down to my shop and tried to turn it on. Thought maybe I had a bad battery in my remote, so I replaced it with new. No such luck when trying to turn on. Hit the power button and screen hi-lites time, then ghosts. Display only shows time. Volume controls work in display using remote. Tuner does not.

r/bose on Reddit: Bose Wave Radio/CD/Clock
October 22, 2023 -
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.

Suggestions here did not work for me. There are videos on YouTube that seem to show this is related to a capacitor problem* and not simply a need to reset something digitally. I'm not investing in actual repair for mine. Enjoyed it while it worked. *Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xryzDMKz-a0

November 18, 2011 - I had (have?) the same problem...Mine's a Series 2 Wave Radio, 3 AAA batts for standby. The battery contacts were clean, no leakage. I put in new Energizer alkalines that worked fine for maybe 2 weeks, then the display and functions petered out dead again. Just now replaced with Duracell alkalines, and it came back to life again, for how long I don't know. Will post again if and when it dies. Thanks, Ears2U ...

I have the Same Problem with my Bose, i found a Video on YouTube which fixed it for me. Place a hairdryer in Front of the Display for a Minute or two, the Heat will help the bose to Boot.

@keithmposey the Please Wait just means that the processor can't complete the boot process. For now I suggest that you unplug your Bose radio and leave it unplugged for a fairly long time (like overnight) Hopefully this will reset the processor. · If it does not, then you do want to check all of the electrolytic capacitors inside your Bose. It is possible that your processor can't finish the boot because of power issue. · The Radio is probably old enough to warrant a good cleaning and recapping anyway :-)

Troubleshooting Bose Wave Radio System 1: No Sound Issues
There is one step you can take here, both as a possible fix, as well as a diagnostic evaluation: 1) Unplug the power cord from the outlet 2) Wait at least 1 hour (60+ Minutes) 3) Press and hold the power button (on the top of the radio, not the remote) for 30 seconds 4) Keep holding power button while plugging back in, and for another 30 seconds after. When plugging back in, go directly to the wall outlet, bypassing any power strips or surge protectors. If this reset process does not work, it would unfortunately confirm an internal hardware failure.

My Bose wave radio (w/cd ) was purchased in 1999, it was working fine untill it quit. Power is gone. What could be the cause and how could i fix it or can it still be fixed?

A shorted Q4 in the power supply seems to be a common problem. Q4 is a 2SC3792 which crosses to a NTE85 or KSC2383YTA (Digikey or Mouser supplier's). The pin arrangement on the KSC2383YTA is exactly the same as the original.
