   1. Bose wave radio dead, no display.

   2. Bose wave radio AM dead, FM ok.

   3. Bose wave radio distortion in sound.

   4. Bose wave radio buzzing.

   These are some of the typical symptoms we have encountered with the Bose wave radio.
   We use original replacement parts. Each piece of Bose equipment
   we receive is inspected and checked for current revisions and upgrades.
   Equipment is fully checked and tested after repair to ensure original factory performance.

   Flat Rate repair for the Wave radio models listed above is $99.00 parts and labor plus return shipping and handling.

   Flat Rate not applicable to water, lightning or physical damages. See terms and conditions for additional information.

   The new Wave Radios without CD that don't have any buttons on the top are factory service only.

      
                    Bose radios in for repair                                            Inside the Series 1 Radio

 NOTE: Most every radio we receive has dead backup batteries, many are starting to leak acid because they are
   dead. The batteries only last a year, so most people forget about them and they go dead, again they start to
   leak acid causing damages to the PC board. Because of this issue we recommend not installing batteries
   unless you remember to replace them annually. The backup batteries only purpose is to maintain the clock, presets and alarm 
   information during a power outage. They will not power the radio if AC cord is disconnected.

   There are 6 series of Wave radios that don't have CD's . Series 1 is the oldest, series 6 is the newest.
   Use the following to identify  which series you have. Each series has different PC boards with design changes.
   In our experience there are no big improvements between the different series radios.

   Series 1 has AA backup batteries and an external AM antenna input. (See photo below)

   Series 2 has AA backup batteries and NO external AM antenna input.

   Series 3 has 9 volt backup battery

   Series 3 Hotel Variant has a 9 volt backup battery and a multi pin data connector on the rear of the unit.

   Series 4 has 9 volt backup battery

   Series 5 has 9 volt backup battery and a music note located to the side of the AC power jack on the back of the radio.
                 Model # AWR1G1 (See photo below)

   Series 6 has NO control buttons on the radio. Model # AWR1B1, AWR1B2 (We DO NOT repair this model)
