How to open a JBL boombox, oh and the actual problem.

Your vid was a very informative find. I'm on my second with the same on/off issue. Both happened within 4 months of use. Amazon replaced the first no questions asked but the issue remained a mystery. Definitely a JBL QA issue. Now I guess I have to open mine up. But at least I know what to look for. Thanks.

You have to take the handle off first by just pooping it off like a beer cap.

Excellent video 👌
thank you for shearing your knowledge 🙏🙏🙏
Saved me a lot of time & money

Hi Jonny,
I can't seem to get the end rings on the sides off of the Boombox. I've turned it anti clockwise, applying much/little pressure but it doesn't move at all. Are there any hidden crews from the inside? Any tips, thanks so much!

Hi
I have a problem here with my JBL boom box..the battery chargers well and when I turn on the power button it only last for 5 seconds and then went off again..

Can you help me my jbl boombox battery indicator does not flash when I
Plug it in atm it is at 60% and works but cannot charge thx

Very instructional video - thank you!! This was very clear, simple and enjoyable to watch.

It would be extremely helpful to know which pins in the battery connector you needed to place your multimeter probes on, in order to check battery voltage??

Many thanks!!

Necesito este video en español.

thank you so much!

What a shitty fucking speaker
Cant believe that this is the only solution for it

Do you know if there's any way to repair a Bluetooth connection? It stutters at fairly short distances or if I put my body between the speaker and my phone. I know it should have exceptional range.

I think it gets popped off sometimes, by the amount of comments saying this video helped. I’m at work now but look forward to trying this later today

This is forest green colour which not available in INDIA few years back

the video looks like it's from 2002 but nice tutorial!

Thank you so much, this video saved my weekend. My speaker wasnt charging but would go on so i gave this video a stab and the other connector behind the one in the video was unplugged. I plugged it in and the charging came back. Thanks again!!!

Thx mate! My JBL is working now. Dont know what the problem was, but it did the trick !

terimakasih

these speakers are great but jbl qa really needs to improve. $500 for a speaker that will have alot of issues after a year or two of normal use is not ok

Kiwis just figure shit out dont we haha

Just had one in with the same issue, this video helped me enormously! I clammed the wrap around shell up and went in through the speaker holes to be able to reach the plugs. This unit had been rolling round in the boot of a car so think that may have caused the plug to come out.

Thanks Mate.. same thing happened to mine adapter came off ! Watched your clip,helped me fix mine... thank you !!

Having problems to turn the side thing off. That thing sits like glue

Same problem thank you

Mi bosina jbl boombox .talves me dura 3 minutos con la mitad de volumen y ase un ruido y se apaga .no se si comprar otra bateria o desarmarla pero antes si me tardaba la carga ahora no. I marca que esta bien cargada .pero se apaga muy rapido y no aguanta aun estando conectada.con el cargador. Saludos desde gautemala city . Espero me ayuden

I had the battery unplugged on mine. This happened after the speaker flew off the back of a moving vehicle and the impact disconnected that plug. However there was no structural damage to the speaker itself besides some scratches and scuffs. This speaker is a beast and I vouch for its durability 100% once I connected the plug it was pumping like it never hit pavement at 15-20kmh

JUST FOR A TIP*** If the cables are still plugged in, unplug them and plug back in at least the battery, this fixed my issue! thanks so much

My speaker doesn’t play the USB anymore for some reason, it still plays Bluetooth though

is it doing anything or showing anyyhing while its connected only to dc
and battery unplugged

Where can I get a spare speaker

Sound on mine goes loud then low maybe the bass is gone then again i play full volume

Parece brasileiro enganando o besta.

Como enganar um troxa

This fixed my issue as well. Although the plug looked like it was latched on correctly but when I removed and re attached, everything worked! 🎉

My charging led don't work and so do the inside and outside too

Cheers for the guide, I'll pop open mine and see whats wrong with it later today.

Edit. No luck, either charger, battery or motherboard is dead.

Edit. Now it's down to battery or mobo.

Take better care of ur stuff....DONT DROP UNIT
And there's 5 lights not 4.

Dude you’re awesome! This fixed my expensive speaker. I was looking into just buying a new one and then I saw your video. Thanks man!!

im having trouble opening the side part it wont turn counter clockwise

Thanks for the great hints! When I tore mine down the pin connector looked fine. By disconnecting and reconnecting it, the power-on problem was fixed!

Removing the end rings is harder than this video is showing . The counter clockwise twist isn’t working for me😡

Was having the exact same problem thank you

I can’t get the rings off no matter what I do the screws are out and I have tried the little rotation and it DOES NOT work it’s been 2 days and still nothing

I have a boombox 1 if i turn it on it turns of seconds later

do u have a video on how to help the side speakers sound come out? right now, the woofer sound is not full. in fact the sound is weak. the only clear sound are the front speakers

have not been able to get rings off no matter how much pressure i add..

You know I'm trying to watch this video and I really doesn't make sense to me because obviously the person taking apart this Bluetooth doesn't know what he's doing he didn't even know that there was a battery in the speaker asking for a friend what the hell type of video is this 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Hey i have a question my boombox just stopped working one day no light no anything no charging so i bought a replacement battery and charged fully i did notice that
when the last light i think is the 5th one never came solid it always stayed blinking so i unplugged the charger and it said it was full ok i started playing the boombox when it was by 2 lights it turned off and i went to charge and a single red light was flashing but it wont charge it just stays 1 red light flashing any ideas ?🙏

Thanks for the video. It would be helpful to say which side of the speaker the motherboard is on. Also, I got mad and just ripped my side panels off. At this point it shouldn't take me an hour to try and turn it when it doesn't want to turn, and everyone else does it like its a baby toy. You'd think they would have some type of ring to help open the side panels. I butchered mine with pliers and a flathead.
