Default Bose Problems

Well, it has finally happened, my Bose has kind of crapped out. More specifically, I left a CD in this winter, and when I started it up recently, the radio was fine, but when I hit CD, it just sits there searching and won't go back to FM now, so I have no audio at all. I know the real solution is to replace it, but does anyone know of a way to reset it to get the radio to come back on, or to get the CD out of it.

Thanks :flag

Mine acts up sometimes in real cold weather. Try pushing and holding the eject button and grab that CD when it comes out because it will gobble it back up pretty quick. That is if it is doing the same thing mine does.

I had one stick on me when i put one of those self made labels on a burned CD. I used a pair of tiny needle nose pliers to grab the cd to retrieve it and I haven't had any problems since. All i have to remember is not to make any of those fancy labels for my burned CDs. :lol:

Try holding the 'eject' button WHILE turning on the key.
It's worked for a couple of us.
