I had several problems on my ancient, much loved and much used Bose Mini Link 1. To tell you how old it is- I paid about $300 for it as I recall! versus 175 nowadays... Anyhoo- apparently it hasn’t been holding its charge to well and worse- it stopped Bluetooth connection, rendering annoying beyond usability.

Luckily I thought to do a couple things after coming here. First off, I bypassed the charging bed and started charging via cable. Also tried the simple re-set by pressing the mute button down and holding for about ten seconds.

This didn’t SEEM to work and so I began the whole update process via Bose website- got me nowhere. Im thinking its too old tho there seems to possibly be a weird secret code within the BOSE website that could access an OLD firmware. OMG, I don’t have time for that!

Anyhoo- in also searching high and low for a SPECIAL (ugh!) BOSE cable (I mean- really? Who keeps stuff like that?) I finally found my speaker was charged to green AND the Bluetooth was now working. Yay. Thanks All.
