Device won't turn on
I want to turn on my Bose SoundLink III, but it won't turn on.
Device power source connection
Perform a check to see if the device will power on when running on AC power (plugged directly into wall).
Faulty charging port or cable
If the issue persists when using AC power, the problem may either be with the charging port and cable or the speaker's motherboard. If you would like to replace your charging port, please visit the following repair guide.
Battery discharged
If the issue is mainly occurring when running on battery power, the battery may be in protection mode or discharged. To resolve this, plug into AC power to restore to operational mode.
Bluetooth won't pair
The device is on, but will not pair with Bose SoundLink III.
Pairing device with Bose SoundLink III
You must ensure that the speaker is discoverable. This is indicated when the indicator light blinks blue.
Previously paired device unable to pair
- Clear all pairing history from your speaker by holding the Bluetooth button for 10 seconds until you hear a tone.
- Clear pairing history of the speaker from your Bluetooth-connected device.
- If the issue persists, try performing a factory reset of the speaker by holding the mute button for 10 seconds until LED lights flash.
Battery won't keep a charge
The device does not work when not plugged in.
Battery may need replacement
- The battery status icon still blinks yellow after ten hours of charging.
- The operating battery life noticeably drops.
Charging port is damaged
- If you notice that problems concerning battery life aren't resolved by the above steps (in addition to trying a new charging cable), your charging port may be damaged.
- You should inspect the charging port, making note of any dust or debris clogging it.
- Also, if you notice the port seems warped, loose, or damaged in any way you may need to replace it in order to begin charging your speaker's battery again.
Speaker sounds distorted / muffled
The sound quality of the speaker has deteriorated.
Bluetooth connection
Check if the issue is from poor Bluetooth connection. This can be tested by plugging an auxiliary cord into the device. If the sound quality is satisfactory with the auxiliary cord, there may be a problem with the Bluetooth connection.
Device is out of range
You may need to move the paired device closer to the speaker. If the issue persists, then the problem is not with the range.
Wi-Fi connection
Try disabling the Wi-Fi on your device and closing excess running apps, and then test the sound quality.
Faulty Auxiliary port / cable
If the issue persists when using auxiliary cord, the issue may either be with the auxiliary port or the cable.
Volume distortion
If the sound is distorted, try lowering the volume on your device and raising it on the speaker.
If the problem persists after checking all of the above points, you may need to replace one or more of your speakers. For help with replacement please visit the following guides: Bass Speaker Replacement and Treble Speakers Replacement

Thank you, it worked perfectly on my SoundLink 3! I didn't even have to clear the pairing history from my iPhone 7 Plus! Glad it happened now rather than on a trip somewhere. Now I'm prepared!
Thanks, Tony.

I have tri d everything and it still dosn’t Work. It was completely charged this morning and usually lasts all day but turned off on its own after only 3 hours. Now I can’t turn it back on. I plugged it in and no lights appear. The power button does not work, even after I hold the mute button longer than 10 seconds. I have checked the charging port and it appears fine and unobstructed. What should I do next? Thank you

I have the exact same thing happening. Only had this 8 months and the battery wont hold a charge, then on to it wont turn on at all. Is it because Bose is making these out of Mexico that there are so many issues with these? I wouldn't expect to pay so much to get such an unreliable product that $@$** the bed after 8 months.
I have bought Bose speakers for 22 years now but am strongly reconsidering that for all of my audio needs from here on in if this isn't properly resolved. I am military and word of mouth working with so many people travels fast. This speaker has let me down lots of times in front of lots of people at several functions. I would expect this from a entry level speaker, not Bose

My speaker has died and won’t recharge. I have tried a different charger but there is no sign of life. This is after less than 2 years usage.
Any ideas????
