I've got the service manual, but you'll have to bear with me until after
Xmas. Just as a matter of interest, I do work for a Bose service agent, and
have done LOTS of these, but the symptoms you describe are not any that I
have ever had. It sounds a bit system control micro-ish, but may not be. If
you would like me to scan the relevant manual bits, mail me off-group, so I
remember. Spares may turn out to be an issue, because they are *very* anal
about who they will supply.

Look for a bad 1 ohm flameproof resistor in the power supply, near a TO-220
package regulator IIRC, around the middle area of the main board.

I think it needs a new 9 volt backup battery.

Now it's a _really_really_ overpriced piece of garbage.
