Fix Sony Bluetooth Speaker Not PAIRING Connecting to Smartphone (Android Iphone Wont Connect Pair)
If your Sony Bluetooth speaker is no longer pairing with your iPhone or Android (Samsung Galaxy, etc.), try these steps to fix the issue:
1. Turn Bluetooth Off and On
On your smartphone, go to Settings - Bluetooth and turn it off, then turn it back on after a few seconds.
On the Sony speaker, turn it off, then back on.
2. Forget the Speaker and Re-Pair
On your phone, go to Bluetooth settings and forget/remove the Sony speaker.
Turn off Bluetooth, then turn it back on and re-pair the speaker.
3. Reset the Speaker (Restores factory settings)
Turn on the speaker.
Press and hold the Power button and Volume Down (-) button for 5-10 seconds (varies by model).
The speaker will turn off—turn it back on and try pairing again.
4. Check If the Speaker Is Already Connected to Another Device
Sony speakers auto-connect to previously paired devices.
Disconnect from other devices or put the speaker into pairing mode (usually by holding the Bluetooth button for a few seconds).
5. Charge the Speaker
If the battery is low, Bluetooth may not function properly. Charge the speaker and try again.
6. Check for Interference
Keep the speaker and phone close during pairing.
Move away from Wi-Fi routers, microwaves, or other Bluetooth devices that may cause interference.
7. Update Firmware (If available)
Use the Sony Music Center app (if your model supports it) to check for firmware updates.
8. Try Another Device
Test pairing with a different phone or tablet to see if the issue is with the speaker or your smartphone. All model numbers including SRS-XB13 SRS-XB100 SRS-XB23 SRS-XB33 SRS-XB43 SRS-XG300 SRS-XP500 SRS-XP700 LSPX-S3 RA3000 RA5000 #sony #bluetoothspeaker
