I have no Idea if this is the right place to post this.

I have an older base 5 bose system. The base seems to be ok after I got the cd lens to stop sticking.

The problem I am having is with the sub-woofer system. The numbers are A5Pe0Du123971 and C9646

When I power on nothing happens. I happened to be able to prey
the case off (WTGF Bose) to get a look on the inside Every thing
looks pretty good good as far as the circuit board goes , fuse is
good and all the wires look connected.

So I am looking for a trouble shooting guide - Does anybody have
one or know where I can get one.

Or maybe someone can get me started on the transformer trouble
shooting to start.

Don't open the section with an amp in it !!!
It can discharge electric shock even with the power chord off.

Take it into a shop, or better yet, if you can afford it, get a real Hifi system - Bose is not Hifi.

Thanks Christopher Molloy - But useless as they have no trouble
shooting skematics there

James those shockers are called capacitors. I will be super careful
thanks for the heads up.

Now does anybody have some DIY Repair Info on these? Where is Mark Burgess from this post? He has the info I need ?

Hi Nuck - I know I was hoping he would see the batsign and hit me up, as for the great pumpkin its not his time yet.


His PM is off which I can well understand. Anyone? anyone? Burgess?

Has anyone else received the schematics for this system? My model is1059-b and seriel is00a 00016. The system is not actually mine but an older friend that has fond memories and wants to keep the system working.

Those acoustimass cubes (if caulked) could also be used as a coffee mug.
