I have a bose wave clock raido. I am having problems. While it was plug in (I used a surge protector), I notice the radio lost all power during the night. Initicially when I plug it back in I hear a "dud sound from the speakers" this happens when I plug and unplug the power.



So, I just left it unplug and repluged it a few days later and it worked. However when I left it plug in over night it would not work again the next morning. There is not power, no led desplay, no radio, but dud sound from the speakers when I plug and unplug the power cable.



Left it along for a while and it worked again, and would not work after I left it unplug for a few hours.



I don't believe it is just a bad connection from the power cable.



What do you think is worng.

Make sure the backup battery is installed and is good. Should be a regular

9v battery. Usually a Wave radio will work without one, but if it hasn't been used in a long time and the backup battery has been dead or missing for a long time you might see what you're describing.

The unit needs service. Possibly bad solder connections at a regulator. Not a DIY repair.

Well that depends on who the Y is in DIY : ) I would attempt it "myself" but I might not succeed. But my radio would not die without me trying ;-)
