Buttons are unresponsive

JBL Flip 3 buttons are not working

Possible underlying causes

Check that device is powered on

Check to make sure that your device has been turned on.

Check battery to see if it is dead

Check the device’s battery to see if it may be dead, and charge or replace the battery as needed.

Consider Any Exposure Device Has Had to Water

Although the JBL Flip 3 speaker is splash-proof, buttons may become unresponsive if they have experienced extended exposure to water - e.g. the device has been submerged in water rather than simply splashed.

Sound cuts out

Audio plays intermittently or drops out suddenly

Possible underlying causes

Bluetooth connection at edge of, or beyond range

If your device is outside of the working range of the bluetooth transmitter, the sound may cut in and out, or drop out suddenly.

Objects interfering with bluetooth signal

Large and/or dense objects between the JBL Flip 3 and the source of audio may interfere with signal transmission, resulting in cuts and drops in audio. Ensure a clear, unobstructed path from the source to the JBL Flip 3.

Device won’t charge

Device battery wont retain, or begin to charge

Possible underlying causes

Check outlet

Ensure the charging cord is properly plugged into a functional outlet.

Check charging cord

If there are exposed wires on the charging cord, or if the charging cord has experienced some trauma, then the problem may stem from the charger rather than the device itself.

Plug in properly

Make sure the cord is plugged in the device all the way.

Unresponsive Bluetooth

JBL Flip3 won’t connect to Bluetooth properly

Possible underlying causes

Turn on device

Ensure that the device is turned on properly

Unplug any conflicting speakers

Check to see if you have headphones or an overriding AV cord into whatever you are attempting to connect to the JBL Flip

Reconnect music player to speaker

Delete the Flip Speaker from your device’s Bluetooth’s memory and reconnect

Distance from Speaker

Ensure that you are not too far away from the speaker to properly connect

Device won’t turn on

The device will not respond to the power button being pressed.

Possible underlying causes

Battery is Broken

The battery may be broken and need to be replaced. (Link to battery replacement page)

Short Circuit

A circuit may have broken due to potential water damage, resulting in the need to replace the circuit board. (Link to circuit board replacement page)

Device isn’t charged

Plug the device into the charger. Allow the device to charge before attempting to turn on the device again.

Charging cord is faulty

Plug in the device with a new charger to check if the fault is in the device or the charging cord.

Reset the Device

Hold the power button for approximately 30 seconds to reset the device. The device may begin functioning after resetting.

its been only one week i bought the jbl flip 3. i bought it from japan and brought it in Bangladesh through my cousin. After using it from the 1st day, i have been facing the problem, its taking "auto restart" even though having enough charge left on the speaker. But if i play the speaker connecting through charger, it isn't making any trouble then.

I am looking for urgent solution for the problem.

(P.S. i have updated the firmware version of the speaker too)

Mehedi Hossain Onik - Replica

My speaker isn't charging. It's new and on its second charge and the first light goes on when it's connected to power and it flashes but after leaving it charge for an hour or two the same light is still flashing and when try to turn it on the red light comes on and then goes off again.. what do I do?

Taylor - Replica

ehh, i have this problem too. but i guess the battery are already dead, you have to take it to the warranty or just change the battery by yourself.

vallejos.juan -

i sm facing the same problem can u please help.

Ashish Sharma -

Did you get solution to your problem? I am facing same issue…now

Yogesh Patrikar -

I have the same problem. I’ve replaced the battery once, thinking maybe I had a bad battery, but … I got my supplier to ship another battery and that does not appear to be the problem. The first light comes on like it wants to charge the Flip3, but it never graduates up the scale to the high level lights. And, unfortunately, it doesn’t play music, though it is located by the Bluetooth on my cell phone.

Andrew Lietzow -

Same experience, did you resolved this issue?

Johnrey Grueso -

I have same problem Mehedi has......... unfortunately nobody answers his question....

Ed Eagler - Replica

I have same problem Mehedi has,........ can somebody answer us?.....

Ed Eagler - Replica

Reseting the speaker by pressing the power button for 30 secs and forgetting the speaker on the phone did the trick for me

bfly75 -

iFixit is bullshit! To reset the device 1. Turn on the device 2. Press Plus and play/pause till the device turns off!

Julian Str - Replica

Indeed today my previous trick did not help anymore. Indeed reseting is done like you say. Although the icons look like Plus and Phone on my Flip 3. Red light will appear then speaker will power off and reset.

Phil Hanna - Replica

You can’t they run on different software I had to exchange 4 for a 3

Paul mack -

I use my JBL Flip 3 with a AUX cable, and am running into issues. The speaker evidently has some kind of programming that detects when there is input from the AUX and allows audio through, and it often won’t detect the music at all (resulting in no audio output). More troublingly, whenever the music is played too quiet, the speaker simply switches off the audio (deciding that because the input level is so low, it probably doesn’t exist). What I want to know is if their is way to manually switch off the audio detection and just force the device to assume that there is ALWAYS input from the AUX.

The Finkie - Replica

Strange… I’ve got it connected via Bluetooth to my laptop (which I would assume is more stubborn with sound detection) and I can get my volume down to 1% and it still plays - it will turn off the speakers (but not the Flip 3) after 10 seconds of absolute silence though, and turn them back on when I start playing. If you have a smartphone (Android or iOS) could try downloading the “JBL Connect” app - it gives a few extra controls over the device including renaming it, disabling the sound effects, and updating; which may fix the problem. Sadly, a lot of modern portable speakers force this sort of sound detection power saving now, even while plugged into a power source. But you could give that a try too

Adam “AJ” Walsch -

I have been through all the steps outlined in the manual but I can not get the speakers to play stereo, will only play out of one speaker. What do I need to do

james charland - Replica

hi there !

after falling (badly according to rumors) the classical 1R5 inductor was moving freely in the box…

opened, soldered… it all sounded good for 15 minutes.

BUT… all of the sudden cracks and noises were voiced by speakers without explanation nor source (blutooth).

I noticed the jack-in connector on the board is damaged : could it be the reason ?

analog disturbances caused by internal heat ? or whatever ?

or could it be my job on 1R5 not giving full satisfaction?

VIPH - Replica

I just got a new(er) iPhone and the JBL Flip 3 wouldn’t pair or show up in the list of Bluetooth devices on the phone. I put the speaker in pairing mode, held the Bluetooth button down on the speaker and it finally showed up on the phone and paired. I also had the aux cord hooked up between the phone and speaker, but I doubt it had anything to do with it.

mojou812 - Replica

I ❤️ you. Lol! Finally got it to work! Thank you!

elenafelix1101 -

Hold power down for 30 secs

Harry -

My JBL Flip 3 works fine except I cannot get it to turn off once it is turned on, and  the volume (+) and (-) buttons don’t work.  If I hold the minus sign (on the casing) for a few seconds, the volume does not respond, but I get an audible code “71” from the speaker.  I looked in the manual for code 71, but didn’t find anything addressing this problem. How do I fix this problem?

matforced3 - Replica

Nu flip 3 wont get the update in the JBL connect app and really wish that it got the update can anybody help me ?

Dylano Brink - Replica

I left my JBL Clip 3 charging and now the red light wont turn off, it’s just a red light, it’s not blinking. It doesn’t turn on either, what should I do?

Cristhian - Replica

Had the same problem. Held the power button down for 30. Works perfectly

Harry -

My jbl flip 3 speaker turns off when connected to Bluetooth and it turns back on itself it only works well when I’m charging it. Pls I need an urgent solution

olabisi salawu - Replica

Holding the power button down for roughly 30 seconds corrected the problem with my Clip 3 when the charging light stayed on after removing the charging cable. I was using a longer cable for another device that included the same plug when the problem occurred. I’ll guess I’ll have to stay with the much shorter cable that came with the unit, or could have just been a fluke when using the longer cable.

David - Replica

Everything works on my JBL clip 3 waterproof speaker but my sound will not come on the guitar sound or anyting. Is the speaker gone out?

Tony play list Tony Rivers - Replica

My Flip 3 worked great yesterday. Took it to work this morning, no sound coming from it! It hooks up to my phone fine… just no sound! WTH! Battery is fully charged. Tried doing some things I saw on this site to maybe reset it… nothing works to bring it back. It is 2 months old, and I have not abused it! It is an original, too! Was a nice gif from my wife, hate to,tell her it ain't working already!

ZaneGrey - Replica

Why does my JBL flip 3 make a beeping noise then 2 sec later it turns off.

trinna602 - Replica

my thing says it is connected to my device but no sounds coming out of my speaker just the device

Eve - Replica

My Flip 3 won’t charge fully, and when it is charged fullest as possible, it lasts for about 3 songs when it goes off again. Furthermore, there sometimes is a cracking sound when the bass kicks in. The question I have is whether the above described situation will be fixable or not?

Bas - Replica

Have the same issue.

Nelson Moreno -

i don’t see my particular issue listed. After I power it up, the power button turns blue and the echo-ing tone sounds twice. The phone says the connection is possible and it’s right next to the speaker. It has worked flawlessly for about 3 years. The problem started I assume, as a result of a tip-over and momentary red light on the device. Charge lights indicate 4 of 5.

Stephen Bushway - Replica

sorry, I meant “not possible”.

Stephen Bushway - Replica

I love my Flip 3 speaker, but every once in awhile it shuts off while playing a song from my iPhone! Is there and connection to the volume that may cause this? I do warmups for a group and it’s only one song, but after a few minutes it stops! Starts up as soon as I turn it back on! Any suggestions ?

I got flip 3 two months ago and the speaker won't charge now, something went wrong with the jack. There has been no physical damage to the speaker and it just suddenly stopped charging. How is it possible? And is it possible that it's because I used an inappropriate adapter to charge it?
