Dear all,

I have a Move and I’m unable to charge it.

I used the charging base provided by move but the battery always remain at 0%
I bought Move this year so I don’t think that I need to change the battery.

anyone with the same issue?

 

thanks

Hi @daniele.mgr.

Welcome to the Sonos community and thanks for bringing this to our attention. I understand your situation and the feeling of not being able to meet your expectation of a newly bought device. Allow me to provide some recommendations to help out.

I would like to recommend the following basic troubleshooting steps.

  1. Remove the Sonos Move from the charging bay.
  2. Turn off the Move by pressing the power button for 10-15 secs until the light on top disappears.
  3. place the Sonos Move back on it’s charging bay and without pressing any buttons, the Sonos Move should turn on by itself.
  4. If the battery indicator on the Sonos app appears, I suggest observing as it may just be a glitch.
  5. If the battery indicator on the Sonos app not disappear, submit a diagnostic, and call our technical support team for more in-depth troubleshooting steps.

Please let us know how it goes.

Please let me know if you still have further questions or concerns. we are always here to help.

Hi @daniele.mgr.

Thanks for the immediate and detailed response.

I would like to suggest rebooting the Sonos Move by removing it from the charging bay, press and hold the power button for 10-15 seconds until the unit has officially turned off with a confirmation of a chime sound, then place the Sonos Move back on it’s charging bay. Without touching any buttons, the Sonos Move should automatically turn on by itself. Then, let us observe if we have the same issue or we have an improvement.

Please let us know how it goes.

Hi @daniele.mgr.

Thanks for your immediate response and feedback.

Allow me to share with you the Sonos Status guide to have a better understanding and reference on what the light status means. A blinking amber/orange light on the Sonos Move indicates low battery status. After confirming of following the guides provided above and still no improvement, I would recommend contacting our technical support team for more in-depth troubleshooting steps or possible product replacement.

Please let us know how it goes.

Hi Paul,

Sonos support did some test and at the end they found a problem in the battery.

So they change my Sonos move with a new one.

 

Thanks
