It has a rechargeable battery. It may need to be plugged in a while before it will work not plugged in. Hold the power button until the device turns on.

The button at the top of the radio needs to be pushed in for about 2 - 3 seconds to turn on and off. The rest will work as it should.

hi-- yeah, I am seeing this as well, but I was able to press the "speaker" button and the sound comes back. it's really kind of frustrating, I am trying to figure out what to do about it as well.

When I hooked mine up, I simply plugged it in and started playing. It was very straight-forward. Sorry I can't be of any more help.

What issues are you having? Does the unit power up? It can be tricky to find the right station to tune to. I had to switch from the default before I could hear my player.

The problem I had was not lack of sound, but it won't turn on when I plug it in. There must be a short in the electrical wiring on my unit. I did have sound when I began using it -- nothing great, no Bose equipment. I'm sorry, but I think this is junk. I don't know what to do with it. I will find a place that recycles electrical appliances and give it to them. Alison

Make sure you have the speaker output that the transmitter is connected to turned on and the transmitter plugged in. Then plug in the speakers to the outlet for power and use the remote to turn on the speakers. One thing I have noticed is that the volume needs to turned up on the unit you are wanting to listen to so you can have more control over the volume at the speakers. I'm not talking blasting loud but up about half way. It uses the input volume from the stereo and then you control the output to the speakers with the remote. I hope this helps. We love ours and they work as advertised! Good luck. Make sure you have the speaker output that the transmitter is connected to turned on and the transmitter plugged in.

You must start the speaker first. You can also try it while charging, if this works, it means the battery is dead.

I would do some basic trouble shooting. Verify your hot wire is hot and your ground is grounded. Also your player chassis may need to be grounded behind the dashboard. Make sure the radio faceplate is seated properly. Did you push the power button or are you trying to twist the knob to turn it on. Was your old radio working?

Hi Caroline,This product was horrible. I have since discarded it. Maybe I just got a bad one but it wasn't worth the effort to try another one. I tryed it with a couple of radios with the same result. It would play for a minute or two then make a loud noise and cut out and did this over and over.Don

No. In fact it should play while your even charging it. Looks like you my have a lemon. I would exchange. It's worth the time. It's an awesome little speaker for the money. Also it will last a very long time on a charge.

I got the same issue (connected with USB) plus, has static. The on/off control is in the weird location and many times I get the Static with a noise in the speaker. They even get sound when I turn on and off the light in the room. It never happened with the previous speakers.

To be honest, it's way to old of a system to find parts. I had a rear speaker go out with a blinking light and luckily found a post online of somebody having the same issue. Blown capacitor. Mine is still going but when it goes, it's gone for good. Great system though.

When it asks you to connect your MP3 player you make it work by pushing play on your MP3 player not the small button on the mic to play (like with the pre recorded mic song). Pushing the small button with the mp3 hooked up turns it off "bye bye" . If you aren't doing that and it is just randomly stoping Id guess batteries first, then a short in the wire when moved, then a short in the mic.

Have you tried adjusting the volume? This thing works as plug-and-play. If it doesn't work the first time, it could have been factory defect.
