Hi,

I seem to recall something like that. Will try and find out for you. Maybe Pope will be along before I get back to you on Monday.

How do you know it isn't shutting down?

I believe that the only update disk for the Bose amp is to correct sporadic sound failure.

As above, the Update CD (TI 14/03) was released to address a 'sporadic sound failure'; however it may address an issue if your Amp SW has corrupted - certainly worth a try before a replacement C£700?

Assuming you have a PCM not a CDR Check your current SW level:

Press and hold the 'SET' button then simultaneously press the 'FM-AM' and 'AUDIO' buttons to access the Service Menu, select 'SW Versions'

If your SW level is 00011927 or lower, you have the early SW and the update can be applied.

If your SW level is 00011979 you have the MY04 SW and no further update is available.

The disc is available under the Part No: 000 043 205 50


ETA: If you haven't already, get the MOST error counters checked via the PIWIS tester - a fault in another unit in the loop could be exhibited by the next unit (CD changer / phone etc). I have changed or bypassed Phone modules for the exact problem you describe.
