  • I got this Bose soundlink mini with the description "It only makes wet fart sounds". So I wanted to try to get it to make music again instead of farting. In the end it turned out to be a simple and cheap repair.
    Enjoy!

    It worked!!! Same behaivor of farting before.
    This solution seems very easy to be the fix for the speaker, however, I cleaned the contacts and after putting the battery in and out a couple of times, it is working by now.

      I think the most likely cause for no power is a broken battery. But maybe you'll get lucky and this will work. Let me know if it worked for you.

    Does anyone know how to replace the battery on the original SoundLink Mini. The one that has 2 pads for feet and does NOT have the removable panel with screws underneath?

    If the battery is ALL the way dead, zero volts, it won't charge. remove the battery and place dc 12v power on the marked positive and negative terminals on the battery for about 20 seconds and retry it in the speaker.

    • @SpareTimeWorkshop
      @SpareTimeWorkshop  Год назад

      I think it is safer to replace the battery in this case.

    What is contact protector? Also, mine plays via Bluetooth for a while and then randomly shuts off. What could that be about? Doesn't seem to be holding a charge so will have to try this.

    Mines wasn't charging in the tray I wet the connection and it started charging so there must be dust on that connector I'll have to get the toothbrush out see what I can see. But the thing has been going strong for 8 years looks like I got the same model as this one we're watching. Right now it's charging we'll see the sound system works great as far as Bluetooth connection to the main stereo Yamaha 7/2 unit which I put a plugged in a Bluetooth output for it. Subtle connect to this thing out on the Lanai. Like I said my issue was speaker not charging in the tray. Anybody had that issue let me know the permanent fix. I hate to say it but I wet it with my tongue. Put it in a train and it started charging again I'm sure there's possible debris maybe dust over the years. It's charging right now while I'm listening to it so we'll go from here next. Fairing happy to find this video online thanks. 👍

      There is of course always a chance that your speaker will be damaged if you open it. But if it's already broken, you might as well try, right?

    Mine don't even do that. No power even when connected to ac adaptor. New battery, still no power. Nothing. Might be the mainboard. Anyone have any luck in changing one out? Other than that, my Bose makes a nice brick.

    I appreciate your efforts in fixing the Bose Soundlink mini (1st generation) Bluetooth speaker. However, I am deeply disappointed by the design of the circuitry housing, which I find to be inadequate and hindering repair. I purchased my Soundlink mini 1st generation for INR 16,800, along with an additional INR 3,800 for the pouch. I cherished this device, even writing an independent review after four months of use. Unfortunately, it now appears that the battery has failed, indicated by a blinking red LED when I attempt to charge it. Bose no longer services this model, and the necessary battery is unavailable or prohibitively expensive from online sources. This experience has soured my opinion of Bose and other tech companies that produce such poorly constructed devices. I believe it is time for consumers worldwide to voice their concerns and consider boycotting Bose products. An independent agency should conduct a thorough audit of such practices. It is regrettable that a company of Bose's reputation has failed to meet my expectations.

      I don't feel much like boycotting. I have had a Bose soundlink 2 for several years. And I am very satisfied with the design and sound of the speaker. Only the battery protection I do find irritating about this speaker (if you don't use it for a long time, you have to plug it back into the charger first to turn it on).
      I do agree with you that it is not a speaker you can easily open for repairs.
      What you can try is updating your speaker via your computer possibly this will fix your problem.
