Replacement remote for Bose Wave System I
If they said a universal remote, I'm assuming they are talking about third party ones you get from any electrical store. Unfortunately that probably means they no longer have official Bose ones as well. In which case, yes pretty much any universal one should be fine. Most will be Infra-Red, so they don't need to be paired, but they will need to be programmed. It will probably have 20-50 codes for Bose products, and you would need to go through each to find which one works best, but you still may not have full control over the system (depending on what buttons it actually has and most are designed for TVs/DVDs/Home theatre). Realistically these remotes are becoming less useful and less available, as TVs switch to BT remotes. So an electrical store may only have one or two styles anyway. More on reddit.com

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.

Hi,

I need to replace my old Acoustic Wave's remote. It's a CD-3000, manufactured in 1998 and its original remote was just eaten by my dog. Will a new Wave remote still work with the older model?

Thanks!
