Question about Bose 3·2·1 II System

Sound keeps turning off

When I turn my Bose onto any source, it has started turning the sound off after a few seconds. If I turn it off and on again, I get sound again for a few seconds. Sometimes it seems to stay on for a couple of hours after I turn it off and on enough times, but I can't understand what is happening. If I turn it off again I am back to square one, and the same thing seems to happen if I alter the volume - though I am not certain about that, it may be coincidence. Any ideas please?

    We're having the same problem w/ the TV sound (if we switch bose to dvd/radio, etc we can hear sound). It's way too much trouble to keep unplugging and plugging it back in (it's going to break if we keep doing that, but it works for a little while). If we can get the system to do a "hard restart" then it's fine (we do this by turning the system on and off until we get the "BOSE 3-2-1" display on the screen). We would love to know a perm solution to this VERY annoying problem.

Bose v35 Sound plays but no picture.

If you have already tried using different HDMI cables and testing the system on different TVs with no success, here are some additional troubleshooting steps you can try: Check the input settings on your TV: Make sure you have selected the correct input on your TV. Sometimes, the input setting may have changed accidentally, or the TV may have multiple HDMI inputs, so it is worth double-checking. Check the output settings on your Bose V35: Make sure the output settings on your Bose V35 are correct. Go to the "Video" settings on your Bose V35 and make sure the "HDMI Out" is selected as the output option. Power cycle your equipment: Try turning off your TV, Bose V35, and any other devices connected to the system. Unplug everything from the power source, wait a few minutes, and then plug everything back in and turn it on again. Reset your Bose V35: If none of the above steps work, you can try resetting your Bose V35 to its default settings. To do this, turn off your Bose V35 and unplug it from the power source. Then, press and hold the "Source" and "Setup" buttons on your Bose V35 remote control for about 10 seconds until you see "Resetting System" on the display. If you have tried all of these steps and are still not able to get a picture, it may be a hardware issue and you should consider contacting Bose customer support or a professional repair service for further assistance.

Bose 321 series II giving very dull sound in all inputs. Occaisionally the sound cuts and comes back with full and bright trebble, but then cuts back to original dull sound. I cant see anything the ad

Try the following:

1) Switch the unit off completely, using the powerswitch on the back of the bass box.
2) Switch the unit back on via de switch on the bass box.
3) The display should read BOSE 321 and than be dark.
4) Insert a CD and switch the unit on with the remote by selecting the CD/DVD mode.
5) When the sound is now OK, it means that you need to contact Bose to ask them for the latest software update for your unit. After updating your system. The problem will not reoccur.
6) in case the problem continues and at start-up using a CD, no improvement of sound is heard, the system should go into repair. Contact Bose in your country and ask for return instructions.

Amp fuse keeps blowing when car is turned off

It sounds like that fuse is supplying power to more than just the amp and is being shorted out in the START mode. Normally I would think the power to the sound system would be cut off by the ignition switch in the START mode. Try to find out what else that fuse supplies power to. You can disconnect suspected trouble areas to see if that helps locate the source of the fault.

I have a bose lifestyle 12 and we get a static sound with a pop and the sound goes dead. If we turn the unit off and back on, it works for 10 minutes or so then does it again. Sometimes it will go for...

It could be bad soldering joints inside the unit. If the unit is moved and comes back on then it will be definitely that!
Otherwise it could be some device which is heating up due to failure and shuts down when it gets to much. When it cools down it starts working again.

Outside bose speakers keep turning off after a few seconds

It sounds like the speakers are either peaking and shutting down or they are dodgy. Check the volume going into the speakers and turn it down see if that works, otherwise take the speakers back. It might be worth trying a different set of speakers as well

BOSE LIFE STYLE SYSTEM SOUND (AUDIO) GOES QUITE FOR A SECOND

This was posted a while ago, so I'm sure it's probably been solved by now. For anyone with audio issues using this or any other Lifestyle system: If you experience audio problems (no audio, intermittent audio) from more than just 1 source (especially if it involves internal sources like DVDs or the radio) then just reset this by unplugging the power for about 30+ seconds from the bass module and the media center DC power. Check the audio input cable (multi-pin din going from the media center to the bass module) for bent pins.
If this doesn't solve the problem, you could try replacing the input cable, but those are usually pretty robust. You could call Bose at 800-367-4008 for tech support or to set up a repair if this fails.
