Bose Soundlink III Partial Disassembly/Teardown

I disassembled my unit to fix a dent in the grill but initially had difficulties trying to figure out how to get the damn thing apart. Since there were no resources available, I decided to try and figure it out myself whilst making a video. Hopefully this can help someone out. Note that the battery appears to be user replaceable. Enjoy, like, and subscribe!

I am glad someone did this. I have been waiting to see what the drivers look like

I do repair bose for living. Good job !

Thank you, I personally find it difficult owning something like this without taking it apart to see the inside. I know that one day I would need to figure it out because there is no way I would want to pay someone (Bose) to replace the battery if I can do it myself. You produced a high quality video and did a professional job tearing down this speaker.

I wanna paint both covers because after owning this product for a while now I got tired of the look. I wanna paint it black or some different

Twice as many speakers as the Soundlink 2, I might upgrade to this. Thank you.

thx I just finished putting a new battery in thanks to your tutorial to disassemble this device
without doing anything stupid (sorry for my poor English, i'm French)

[glenfordcadano]

Background music also good

Mini2 has 2 speakers. This one has 4. Boost my confidence to buy one.

HEADS UP!! I did this about 10 times and red light kept coming back. While looking for battery replacements I kept doing the mute button reset again and again withou looking. It beeped and went off no red light. Pressed power, bluetooth, nothing. Unplugged and plugged back in and ITS YELLOW LIGHT BLINKING AND APPARENTLY CHARGING NOW. Ill wait until it fully charges to try it, but i thought i was gonna be one of the exceptions that needed to buy a new battery. Before that, i would suggest, re try the process even 3p times 😂, sounds dumb but i swear it went to yellow for me and maybe will do for you too.

Gracias andaba buscando un video como el tuyo solo si pudieras hacer uno donde muestres las tarjetas de adentro

Whats the beat? Have looked for it can’t find it. Nice sound on my Soundlink :)

[warrennz]

My line input jack is intermittent and you have to pull the plug to one side to make it go. Don't know if I can get at it to fix it.

[LethalVenom]

Can you put it back together after you tear off those rubber things

[felixliew]
