    THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! (SEE BELOW: I added an updated explanation to your video since it's been almost 3 years you uploaded this amazing video.)
    I watched a few other "how to fix the blinking red battery light" videos but none went as far as yours did with the last step of basically "re-updating" my Bose Soundlink Mini 2 by pressing the following keys: A, D, V, Up arrow, Down arrow.
    When you go to the Bose website (May 2022), it has been updated and I didn't see any other choices or menu box to select the firmware version like in your video. For me, it just said that my speaker had the latest firmware. But I took a chance and pressed "A, D, V, Up arrow, and Down arrow," regardless of what was on the screen AND ONLY THEN did the menu box showed up (basically putting the website into the "Advanced Mode)! (By the way, the letters do not have to be in all-caps when pressing so no need to press down shift key while pressing those keys.) I RESELECTED the latest/current firmware and click on the update/apply button (I forget what it said but it was green), and the website REDOWNLOADED the latest firmware (which my Bose already had but re-downloaded nonetheless). ONLY THEN did the blinking red light stopped.
    Just in case, afterwards, mine then went into a SOLID RED LIGHT. So I just tried resetting both the soft reset and factory reset (as described in your video), and unplugged my Bose from the computer and REPLUGGED it directly into a wall plug. AND THEN, like magic, the red light turned into the slow blinking AMBER light, indicating it was FINALLY CHARGING and working properly!!!
    I really, really appreciate you taking the time to upload this very helpful, problem-solving video, and I also thank the ifixit link person!!

      Oh my goodness. I was going to throw out my speaker after having the same red blinking light problem! I also had the same experience as Hyanne Park - after doing the firmware update, I did the soft and factory reset, then plugged the speaker back into a wall plug. The red light turned to a slow blinking amber light and now my speaker works again after being dead for over a year! Thanks so much for posting your video!

    People, if the normal procedure doesn't work like my case, I noticed that around 60% of the update (or so) the speaker came to life, but then when the process finished it went to flashing red again... so I did the procedure again, but this time when the speaker came to life, against all recommendations and odds, I disconnected the USB... yes.. and now it works. Thanks a lot to this guy and I hope I help someone else with this extra step. Good luck.

Did hold "multi function button for 10 sec" and did not remove the power. Every light started blinking and now it's charging again and connected to my phone and playing music! Amazing!

So, I tried pressing A, D, V, Up, Down, which re-updated it with the same firmware. However, it then displayed a solid red light. I followed the instructions to hold the "multi-function button for 10 seconds" without disconnecting the power. Suddenly, all the lights started blinking, and now it's charging again, connected to my phone, and playing music! Incredible!

    Had started to take it apart to start gettining ready to replace the battery when I found this. Followed the instructions, reconnected to the Bose update website, hooked up the Bose Mini II, entered the ADV, Up arrow, down arrow and got the option to update to the 1.1.4. It progressed to about 56 percent then stopped. I started the process again and it finally updated to 100 percent. The blinking red light stopped. It's now charging normally again. Thank you for the excellent guidance.

    I found one that someone threw away and decided to take it home. I tried everything I could find to fix this problem but the iFixit answer is what worked. Thanks for sharing!

    BRILLIANT!!! Had flashing red light, tried holding the buttons down, unplugging it, re-plugging it etc and got nowhere!! Plugged it in me laptop, told it was up to date with no other choices. Did the caps A, up & down arrows and got the drop menu and WALLOP fixed!!!! THANK YOU!! I feel that Bose have hidden this option as when this happened last time my partner had to pay 60-70 GBP to get it repaired by Bose ... I think that is totally unethical of them and has turned me off buying anything else from them in the future!! Once again mate NICE ONE!!!!! 👊🏻👊🏻

    Thank you so much, sir!
    Really well-explained and understandable tutorial. Im glad you told us to use the original bose cable, didnt know they differ but the first cable i tried didnt work for this. Now my speaker is resurrected, thanks again!

    Wow, it worked! Even the bose help forum couldn't offer a real working solution. Thought I had to send it in for service and pay a hefty fee as its out of warranty. You saved us some hard cash during these trying times. Thank you so much sir!

    Two million thanks.... Just about to introduce the speaker to the bin but thought i'd have a look on UA-cam before doing so. How sick would i have been finding the fix after the bin men had been :-(
    Many thanks once again

    It really worked for me too, i almost replaced the battery, but it was the software that caused the blinking red light. Thank you very much!

    Thank you so much! Like so many others I let my speaker gather dust for about 2/3 years as it started blinking red during Covid-19 and when Bose decided to close all their personal stores in the UK. I have tried multiple times to figure out a way to fix the issue over the years and finally decided after talking to a Bose representative to pay the £50 fee to send it off and be fixed, as a last ditch effort I have been going through UA-cam videos and luckily came across this video AND ITS WORKED! Again thank you so much, it’s saved me £50 and I have my music on extremely loud right now and loving life!

    My Bose Mini Sound Link 2 stopped working about 6 months ago, first I did the update but a month later stopped working again. I thought I lost it since then and I thought it couldn't be fixed cause there wasn't any other update on their website. The "A D V Up arrow, Down arrow" was the trick I didn't know and it completely worked. Thank you so much for this information!

    Wow, the best video I have seen on the internet. It actually worked. I had doubts at first . But it worked . I thought my speaker is spoilt. I nearly opened the speaker to see if I can get a battery replacement😂. You saved me ❤❤
