Happy to report that this still works in 2024. Thank you for saving me $55 for the send-back fix!
This video is symbolic of how great the internet can be. Thought I'd have to take the speaker back to the shop, wait in line, go through the whole situation with a member of staff, probably repeat it to a manager or colleague, hope to get a replacement and come home. Instead, a quick search, a 2 minute video, and my speaker is working again! Nice on, Team AG, much appreciated.
Hi Neill, I'm glad it helped and you didn't have to go through that palava. Thanks so much for the warm and encouraging words, I never thought I'd make a symbolic video. Thanks! ❤️
Finally worked!!!!! Thank you!!! I also recommend you plug USB directly into a USB outlet don’t use a wall outlet. Thanks 😊
Yes tnx god bless u brother❤
For anyone who is having this issue you have to do it on a computer and use the Bose charger cable to avoid it not working.
Here is the steps.
1. Plug in Bose charger cable to charging port.
2. Plug in USB into PC.
3. Hold the Multifunction button (3 dots on top) for 10-15 seconds.
4. Unplug the USB from your PC while still holding multifunction button.
5. Release multifunction button.
6. Replug in the USB into your PC.
7. Hit power button and your Bose Color Soundlink 2 should now be charging with a flashing orange light indicating its charging.
If you do this on a wall outlet it will turn on but won’t go into charging mode for some really odd reason. Hope this helps all who experience this issue like I did.
Ryan Acheson OMFG I LOVE YOU IT WORKED. MY BOSE STOPPED CHARGING OR TURNING ON FOR SOME ODD REASON UNTIL I TRIED THIS THANK YOU SO MUCH
still isn't working. sucks, because the speaker was actually pretty good when it worked.
Wow this actually worked. Thank you so much. I've had my Bose Speaker for quite a while (over a year, maybe two...) and this happened before but leaving it plugged in for a little while fixed it. When it didn't fix it it this time I got scared; it's a great speaker, but my bank isn't prepared for a replacement at the moment 😅😅😅
IT WORKED MANN!!!!!!
3 dots?
I am 90 years old and I followed this and charged my speaker. thanks so much. great job... magnifique!
TOTALLY WORKS!!!! I was about to throw away the speaker and then found this video. However, the holding of the POWER BUTTON didnt work... tried several times... still nothing... was about to move on and then I scrolled down and saw USNAcheson's ALTERNATIVE OF PRESSING THE MULTIFUNCTION BUTTON (the three dots) and IT WORKED!!!!
hi! In this alternative, I have to press both buttons? or only the multifunction button? TY
OHHH MYY GODDD!! This worked for me too!
This video is a literal blessing. I borrowed my dad’s speaker for a while and then gave it back to him not knowing that it was in this state. As a result, he got upset at me thinking I destroyed it (bec I have quite a history of uh.. damaging stuff 💀). Then I found this video and after an hour of unplugging, plugging, and begging I finally got it to work and also updated it as per the follow-up video. Now, I have regained my dad’s trust and my peace of mind. Truly, thank you 😌
Same bro, I have a bad track record of breaking my fiance stuff by accident we jsut moced into a new place and went to try and use the speaker and it wouldnt cut on or turn red to charge. Next time she's not looking I'll try it. I really hope it's not broken if so then I have to buy another one
Thank you for this video. Every time this happens, I’m back here watching!
Same. So annoying, Bose.
five years later, but still so helpful. thank you so much, took me a few tries but thanks to you i was finally able to bring mine back to life
Important Discovery if trying to update your Bose.
If it's not updating because it won't stay on long enough to update this is what I did. Hold down the power button and plug into your computer while on the bose updated website. Keep holding the power button while it updates to new software. Don't let go. Worked for me.
@@findingheadwaters, 😭 THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!!! My speaker, that I was _this_close to giving up on, is now charging *thanks to YOU!!!* 🎉
I've probably been working on this for 1.5 hours, and I've tried soooo many different things including holding down the multifunction reset button 10-15 seconds with it plugged in, holding down the power butter 10-15 seconds, and I did the steps in this video problem 30+ times to no avail.
Like you, I was unable to update mine until I read about your trick!! After updating it, I then did the multifunction reset step again, the power button, and I did the steps in this video about 5 times, and suddenly, the next time I tried, it started charging! Yay!! Thank you again!! 😊
Totally worked! I received this from my dad before he passed away so it was important to keep it! Thank you so very much! It’s now charging after doing nothing all night.
Hey, same. I also got my speaker from my dad before he passed away. Hugs to you!
You bloody legend. I had to run through the steps many times, but eventually got it to start charging. I like many others here was about to buy a new speaker, when this video popped up. Thanks for saving me from throwing out a perfectly good speaker, and saving me some cash!!
I was very skeptical cause my speaker is over 5 years old and nothing else has worked so I really thought it had just died for good but this really worked!! Thank you!! Saved me money! 😊
I dont know how you figured this out! You are amazing! I thought my Soundlink Color was dead but somehow following your instructions is came back to life! And its not even identical, just similar. Thank You!
Omgosh thank you! I was trying to do the update Bose recommends on their site, other online tutorials, holding all manner of configurations of the buttons-NOTHING was working!
THIS exact method (posted years ago), followed precisely, saved my speaker. It’s not charging again and playing music! Thank you, hands and voice guy-you’re my hero
Thank you for this- Bose needs you on the payroll.
Amazing!! I did it with the charging plug plugged in the wall rather than my computer, but THANK YOU!!! I use this speaker every day, and haven't been able to use it for over a week. You rock mate!!
Thank you so much, glad its working again! 😊
Excellent! I had the same exact problem, and now I have my speaker back. I didn't want to lose that speaker, it's an awesome speaker. Thanks for the tip!!
This worked! I had to do it 3-4 times. Got some lights but no sound or voice saying "battery low" or anything. A couple more times, got the lights and beeps. A couple more times, got the voice telling me battery low. Got it plugged in now and hoping it takes a proper charge now! Thank you! This has actually been in my drawer for months because I thought it was a lost cause, and I finally decided to take it out and see what I could find on the internet before I trashed it.
Worked for me. Seemed to take ~15x of the above method. I think what happened is it slowly charged a tiny bit with each reset. Initially I only got lights. Then I got the voice. Then I noticed it was flashing the pairing light longer each time and then eventually it started charging with the Orange charging light flashing!!!!
Thankyou so much!!!
I was not expecting this 2 minutes video to solve my problem. but here we are!! Thanks a lot, my speakers are charging again.
This works perfectly! but first, do not forget to soft reset the battery (by holding power button for 15 seconds , without plugging in the usb power cable), before following his instructions step by step. Then 100% it will work! Kudos to @Team AJ for this guide!
Thank you so much Bren. It didn't work when I tried it without your step, but just did it the way you said and it works. Hallelujah!
I've been doing the instructions in the video 7 times already and it only started to work when I followed your advice. Thanks man
That technique absolutely works. It took me 20-25 times, but it eventually had enough charge to regain charging status. Thanks for the great tip!
Thanks for saying it took you multiple tries.. I'm on attempt #4 and still no luck.
@@smaraj27 It took me 3 days lmao. It f sucks
THANK YOU for mentioning that it takes a couple tries! I was about to give up and I got it on my 5th or 6th try!
@@smaraj27 did you get it?
@@guilhermecsaez Yes - eventually it did work!
Thanks! This worked. What a dumb bug on Bose's part though.
creo que es una forma de protegerse del speaker cuando llega a niveles bajos de carga.
Honestly took me like 60+ times. It was dead for like 4-5 years sitting in a closet. Had to keep holding the button, plugging it in for 15, unplugging, and releasing. At first on a laptop until the orange light blinked, and then at about 10 seconds the white, red, and orange blinked. I wanted to be sure so i did thay about 10 times. Then i moved to a wall charger, did it another 10 or so times, tried the 3 dot button mentioned in the comments a few times, and then did the original method a handful more and it WORKED. Its currently blinking orange charging plugged into the wall. Thank you!!! I hope this helps someone else with a SUPER dead speaker.
Content from 6 years ago still helping people like me today! Timeless post and thank you.
Thanks. Clear instructions. How did Bose manage to get this so wrong? I threw my first one away when the problem developed, and then, like you, it happened after one month with my new one. All OK and easy to fix now I know what to do. Great sound - I agree.
BOSE did it exactly right. Please see my response right above your comment! Hope this helps!
@@michaeldavis4746 i got it to aay that batter low pls charge now but it just blinks red and doesn't charge
I got this to work in my outlet instead of my computer. Thanks for the tutorial! Very frustrating not being able to charge my speaker.
Thank you. I had the same problem. Followed you advise and it’s now charging. I didn’t use a laptop just a usb wall charger but it still worked 😀👍
Glad it helped 😀👍
You are a star!!! Tried loads of ways to power this back in to life, pressing various buttons non of them worked thought it was dead for sure. Came across your video and bingo worked straight away!!! Thank you tonnes mate.
Got the Speaker of used market for 20€ as broken. Tried this and it immediatly worked. Thank you!
If your unit is a bit older than a month, you will have to do a firmware update prior to your solution working.
Mine did the exact same thing. Your fixed worked. Problem returns after a while though. Bose needs to offer a replacement as there's obviously an engineering design flaw that the customers are having to put up with. My UE Boom never had issues like this. Ugh!
Completely agree. Mine keeps conking off, you would think after the price they charge, such a simple thing would be taken care of!
Machine 27 same thing it keep happening again and again
Thank you! I had to do this a few times - it seemed to have charged it just a little bit each time, before it kicked into full charge mode.
Glad it helped Angel
2023 and this technique is still working like a miracle. Thanks legend
Um, can we say that this video is a life saver! I never let my speaker die but I did last night & I couldn’t for the life of me get it to charge until now. Thank you!
Happy I could help Kim👍
Para mis compañeros en español
1.-Bocina con cable
2.-Presionar y mantener boton de encendido
3.-Conectar el otro extremo del cable a computadora o corriente
4.-Mantener botón presionado y cable conectado a computadora por 15 seg
5.-Desconectar el cable de la computadora y después soltar el botón
6.-Conectas el cable a la computadora y luego presionas el botón de encendido normalmente (Sin mantener)
Eso hice yo y funcionó
Wow! Amazing. Had the same issue, followed your steps and it worked perfectly fine. Thank you so much!
I'm so glad!
Dude I’ve had this speaker for a few years. My wife bought it for me for Father’s Day a few years back. Honestly I never really got to use it much because charging it was such a pain in the ass of it would even charge at all. Tried your tip and it works like a champ! Thank you so much! I was honestly about ready to just chalk it up as a loss. Again thank you so much this was extremely helpful.
I got this speaker for Christmas 5 years ago and it has never ONCE even turned on but I felt guilty throwing away such a nice speaker. Went back to my parents house tonight and out of boredom decided to give it a shot and see if I could get it working since my other speaker got left behind on a vacation- after a few tries, IT WORKED! Speaker is as good as new, I couldn't be more stoked!!!! Thank you so much❤
Did not work for me......red light just keeps blinking...worked for first 20 minutes I owned it......three hours later after horrible Bose service on chat ... I give up after... 30 years with Bose, I just canceled my latest item. Goodbye
Моя колонка не работала и не подавала никаких признаков жизни. Я реанимировала ее в два захода, два дня, теряя надежду с каждым разом. Пробовала инструкции из разных видео, но в конце-концов остановилась на этом и повторила действия из видео не меньше 100 раз и у меня получилось. Колонка оживала постепенно, сначала загорелись индикаторы, но мигнув они гасли, затем появился звук при подключении к ПК и уже совсем позже, спустя еще 50 раз неуспешных попыток колонка начала заряжаться. Я нажимала кнопку включения, как на видео.
Невозможно описать мою радость! Сижу счастливая, смотрю, как колонка заряжается. Ни капли не жалею, что выбрала именно Bose - она лучшая! Автору видео безгранично благодарна. Thanks a million!!!
You are awesome!!!!!! I watched both your videos and followed the steps!! Voila!!! You have put me out of misery after one whole year of staring at it wondering what’s wrong with it. I never believed it was dead! I’m so happy, thank you!!!! Bose wanted to charge me $95 to look at it and try to fix it.
Thanks for the message, it put a smile on my face..glad it's working 4u 👍
It worked!! Thank you! I was so bumped by the idea of mine being dead :(
Increible que sean los propios usuarios quienes presenten o descubran las soluciones a los problemas técnicos de una marca tan reconocida como Bosé. Este video es el mejor para lograr cargar de nuevo esta referencia de Bose. Gracias
This worked for mine, I spent about an hour messaging the bose support team, and this two minute video worked better and quicker then what they where having me do.
comments from 2022,
This trick still works, I tried it about 10-15 times, thank you so much for the video!
It save me some money from buying a new one, I have left the speaker aside for 3 years already and decided to give it a last chance before
tossing it away!
aside
The ideal help video; concise, clear, and effective. Thanks!
Thank you Sir and you're welcome!
@@CheckAG im back to it again lol
@@CheckAG im back, thanks again lol
May 2021: the steps in the link (holding the three dots) worked! Thank you! The speaker was brand new this past Christmas!
Same for me
Yes! That's what I had to do as well. Thank you for the tip!
Holing the 3 dots also worked for me, I tried the other and it wouldn't work, thanks for your input
Which 3 dots? In the middle of the Speaker?
So I had the same problem, and this fix didn't work after many multiple attempts, multiple USB adapters and cables.....BUT I saw this on fixit so I tried it and it WORKED!. I connected my speaker via the charging cord to my computer. I went to the Bose Support Website and clicked on the portable speakers picture, then the Bose Soundlink II Color picture there I saw saw the link to the Bose Software Updater. I downloaded the updater and ran it, (it was in my Downloads directory)
After the software updater connected to my Soundlink, It said my software was up to date, and wouldn't allow me to go backwards.....BUT I saw this on fixit! Type a, then d, then v, then Up_Arrow, then Down_Arrow ......BOOM; the window changed to Advanced Mode and allowed me to use older versions of software!
So I selected back one revision older, and then clicked on the green "Apply Changes" button.....the software update status bar went active and it took about two minutes to load the new software and automatically rebooting the speaker and it came to life speaking to me! Interesting enough, the speaker said my battery charge status was "HIGH" when it rebooted, so it wasn't the "Shipping mode" my speaker went into.... I hope this works for you if all the other methods fail.
no me sale la lista para actulizar solo la ultima version en el menu avanzado
Thank you ! I followed your instructions and right after the update the speaker power light turned on and started working👍
thank you
thanks man ! worked for me too and im using the the original soundlink color (1)
can you please help me in turning it on
Thank you!! It worked. I purchased one of these speakers on sale during the COVID pandemic but unfortunately forget about it until now (2024). Used this tip and voila it worked!! Thank you!!
After a firmware update and then following this I was able to fix my speaker after almost 5 years. Thank you so much for this video I cant believe it was that simple.
Thank you so much!! I've been so frustrated trying to fix it.
Worked perfectly. Thanks
it doesnt work for me
My sound link mini is old and was slowly dying while plugged in; used it to bump grime in the 6 and dropped it on the concrete couple times tho. Any ideas guys??? It won’t take a charge anymore
@@massy2987 Try using the multifunction button (the three dots) but use the same process as he described in the video. The power button never worked for me, but I tried the multi-function button and it worked like a charm.
Thanks so much..worked perfectly!!
Same
i've had this for nearly 5 years and this worked (i had to use a dongle to plug the USB into my newer macbook and that wasn't an issue)! thanks!
I'm glad its working again :-)
Amazing! Mine would only turn on when plugged into the power. Tried this. Now all okay again. At first I thought it was a dead battery because I left it unused for about 3 years. Thanks again for sharing this. Must be some sort of a soft reset.
Thank you! I tried your suggestion multiple times (maybe more than 10) and the same process w/the multifunction button and it worked! Thank you for helping me/others avoid electronic waste in landfills, blessings to you!
This didn't work for me when plugging into my laptop, but I eventually tried plugging into the AC adapter of my other BOSE speaker and then this trick worked, and now my Soundlink II Colour is charging again.
Awesome! Worked exactly as you said it would! Thank you so much!
you my friend are awesome, I've been trying to do the software update without any success for the last couple of days.
thanks for posting the walk through.
AMAZING! This was some kind of voodoo on mine though. I did this about 3-4 times (wall outlet to speaker; not cpu). Then, the speaker magically emitted a sound (two beeps, different tones). I THEN waited 5-10 seconds and plugged the speaker into the wall charger and BA BOOM! The orange light begins flashing steadily.
Your video is STILL saving speakers in 2023. YOU ROCK my friend. Only wish you could consult with BOSE and put your method in their instruction manual haha.
🤣
I followed this video first, didn't work. Then I watched AJ Firmware update- Permanent fix, followed those directions and redid the first video instructions again and Got it! Its updated and charging now. THANK YOU! I don't have the colorlink 2, this works for the Bose Color Link as well
For me the multi function button worked but thanks!
Great - And I can't believe how often I need to do this (good grief)
Name one other speaker brand that does this! It's unbelievable that Bose thinks this is OK!
If you’re having the dead battery issue just press and hold these 3 buttons ( AUX / + / - ) at the same time while it’s plugged in until the orange light starts blinking and Voila- it’s charging!!
Which one is the aux button? The bluetooth symbol?
@@sariyasenderovic8261 the button with the circled arrow ➡️
adams Adams ah I just tried it but it didnt work for me :/ thanks anyways! I'll keep trying different methods
This actually worked for me. But i pressed the the volume up and down button, together with the button in between them (the button with 3 dots, i dont remember what this button is for though).
@@iPadChannel yes it just worked for me!!!! Thanks so much (it’s - + and button with three dots) make sure all these are pressed simultaneously and then connect the cable to computer while pressing the buttons. Yes quite tricky but it works ❤
Worked like a champ AFTER I removed the speaker as a Bluetooth option on my PC and phone. CHEERS!
Dude, you rock. Fixed my Color II in seconds after spending an hour on Bose website. I love RUclips and I love guys like you. Thanks!
OMG Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
didn't work. mine is only a few months old.

Welp, you've saved me about 5 times now. LOL.
This just worked for me, I did what someone in the comments below suggested and held down the power button for 15 seconds to reset the battery first. I had to leave it for around 40 seconds before I heard “battery high” from the speaker. Phew, thank you for your helpful video!
Omg, i love you man, i have jbl charge 4 that u bought almost 4 years ago, i lost it 4 months ago while i moved to new place. I just found ut again, and it wasnt working, or charging. I just tried this once and it started working again

Thank you so much, this worked for me as well. I had to do it several times for it to work, I guess it gets a tiny bit of charge on each attempt? I switched to using the 3 dot multi-function button instead of power button as someone in comments said to do, then tried it a few more times and it's charging now! So cool. Orange light is flashing steadily indicating it's charging. Don't be discouraged if it doesn't work on your first attempt. I did it on my computer as it was said you are supposed to do, and not with a wall outlet. Good luck!
At first I did not believe this video will do the trick, but now I have revived my speaker!! Thank you!!!

Hey there! did you use a data capable usb charging cable? my first try didn't work--I was using a charging cable that wasn't data capable.
Yes I did.

Kassandra Marquez hey there, I did the same method as the video and it didn’t work. However when I pushed the play/ pause button it worked! Hopefully it works for you! Good luck!
I'm not one to post comments, but I had to because this video is absolutely spot on. Thanks so much for clearly explaining how to fix this issue.
This is a wonderful solution. It saved me tones of headaches of thinking replacing the battery. My Bose is working great.
I tried this multiple times with no luck. I ended up holding the power button down for a full minute which finally seems to have fixed it. Now the orange light is flashing which I think means it’s charging. Yay!
Omg! I'm surprised. I thought I spoilt my speaker but it worked right away. No need to take my speaker back to the shop.. Thank you so much! :) the internet is a wonderful place
Excellent Video! I am an electrical engineer and there are a few things you as an owner of this and many other devices that use a microprocessor controller (sometimes known as a "computer") located inside the box. First off, this is a computer-controlled device and does have this inside the speaker enclosure on the printed circuit board. Any device that says, BLUETOOTH has this. These microprocessors normally function very, very reliably but sometimes there is a glitch that can cause the microprocessor to fault out and the device will not function normally. These glitches may be caused by static electricity on the skin of every person from 5,000 to 100,000+ static Volts depending on the relative humidity of the air around you. The drier the air is, the higher the static skin charge. That static voltage may be applied to the electronic circuits when you plug the device in to charge it. This causes a failure of the microprocessor to follow its "Boot Up" routine program and the device will not work normally. In fact, it may cause the electronic components to be fatally damaged and require replacement to restore the device's operation. All good degreed electrical design engineers allow for the device to be re-booted in case this problem occurs. This is called a microprocessor "RESET." BOSE has done nothing wrong, in fact, they did it EXACTLY RIGHT! What can you can do to eliminate static voltage on your skin? First, you can discharge your skin by briefly touching the outside bare metal case of an ELECTRICALLY GROUNDED appliance, for example, the outside metal case of a plugged-in toaster. You do not have to turn the toaster ON, as long as the plug is plugged into the electrical outlet. The electrical plug has three prongs, the ROUND prong, and known as the GROUND prong. That ground prong is connected directly to the EARTH. Another thing that is important. If you are having issues with your BOSE device it may be prudent to give their customer service a call and they usually will be able to walk you through the RESET procedure. Please save yourself some money and call them first before tossing this $129+ device in the trash! If any of you are interested in other charging issues please write me. There are sometimes very simple, low-cost fixes that you can do yourself. I may be able you help you.
This worked! Thank you so much. For the people watching: use a computer as per the instructions in the video! another charger didn't work for me.
IT WORKED! I tried so many different suggested bose comobs. It was the act of holding the power button THEN pulling the power cord out of the computer
Thanks Ryan! Your procedure worked - but I used a mod after reading comments that some users had to do the procedure many times. I Used the usb wall adapter, and just plugged it in for about 10 seconds, then unplugged, then repeat until it gained enough charge to start fully recharging. I suspect charging requires the microprocessor to be powered up, but when the power is too low the micro shuts down shortly after start up. By repeatedly plugging in it briefly gains charge before the micro shuts down again. Repeating many times eventually gets the battery level high enough to run the micro without it shutting down. This is an incredibly amateur bug on Bose part. If I didn’t like the speaker I would have taken it back and would never buy another Bose. Thanks for heads up on software update - you rock!
Insane. I had given up on my speaker. Thought I tried everything. Found this video but missed the bit it had to be connected to a computer for the trick to work. Thought it was dead still. Rewatched it, and tried it with a computer and voila it’s working. Damn I love you guys for this!!!
Thank you it worked immediately as soon as I held the power button then plugging it in!!! I was messing with the speaker for an hour trying everything you’re the only one to help!
6⭐out of 5
I had to refer to this vid 2x now - years apart because I forgot the steps since the first time - I'm glad this clip is still up!
Thank you so much for posting this video with instructions on how to restart this speaker. Lesson learned...don't ever let the battery totally run down. After following your instructions, the speaker is now recharging as s normal. Again, thank you for sharing this very valuable tip.
Wow!!! It worked I saw other videos with a similar process and didn’t work, but yours totally works. THANK YOU!!
I had 40%charge but wouldn't take new charge until I followed this. Started taking charge right after I let go of power button. Thank you sir!
It worked perfectly as mentioned. Someone placed this near our office electronic trash area where they turn in empty ink cartridges so I thought I RUclips this and I am glad I did, this Bose Speaker Sounds Great, I am glad I did not let this get thrown away.
Good thinking!!❤️👍
Did not think this was going to work- but first try and it started charging right away! Thanks!
You're welcome coopakay 👍
@@CheckAG I can't get mine working 😭
Awesome bro... mine finally started charging! I was literally confused about this product! I know they have a really good sound system.. and I'm a professional Latin percussion musician in Houston Texas, USA. And I was dumbfounded when it wouldn't charge.. thanks to you its charging now... on my way to Hawaii this weekend.. this is why I needed this speaker, the bass, treble, everything... sound quality.
So glad it worked and you're so lucky to go to Hawaii!!😀😀
THANK YOU!!! I think it took me 15-20 tries, but it worked!!! I was ready to throw my speaker away!! I think you have saved a lot of people a lot of money!! Thank you again!!
for anyone coming to this, I had to do this 5 times before one of my speakers finally "woke up". I also held the power button for about 30 seconds that 5th time, but it's alive!
Ya know, some days are a complete mess on many levels and all you needs is a win, for something to go right. Thanks for the win. Your video was a little victory that I needed. Thank you so much
Thank you so much for providing the fix!! You're the only one who has provided this solution; Bose doesn't even have this trick to share!!
Dude my speaker is about 7 years old and I haven’t charged it in about 5. Thought I’d killed the battery, left overnight on charge and still nothing. Followed this and boom! Charging light! Thankyou!
I have no idea how you figured this out!
