Bose Solo 5 soundbar remote control without bluetooth button. How can I pair?

[mlopes1301]

My remote control doesn't have a bluetooth button and cannot pair my solo 5 with my devices. In place my contral has a "AUX 1" button. How can I pair?

Hey @mlopes1301,

That sounds unusual! Where did you get the system from, was it a Bose store or the Bose website?

If you have the Solo 5 system, the image below will show what your remote should look like:

Is this not the same for you? Please let me know.

I lost the original remote control.

By mistake a bought the one that serves base solo 15 ( I recently learned that ).

Im trying to undertand if the remote control I’ve bought can be used in base solo 5 , or if not , if I can request for changing it to the one that works in the equipment I hold. How should I proceed in this case ?

thanks for your help

Thanks for updating us on this @mlopes1301, 

This would depend on if you have the series I or II Solo 15 remote-as only the II version is compatible with the Solo 5.

I had the same Issue. Lost my remote so I bought a universal remote that was supposed to be a Bose remote. The Aux 1 button is where the bluetooth button is supposed to be, but its the Aux 2 button that connects the bluetooth. Press once for white light, then press again for blue light. You can't find this anywhere on the internet. Good luck!
