some basic troubleshooting steps often
0:27
issues with the Sonos move not turning

0:30
being charged let's break down what you
0:33
can check to fix this start by examining
0:36
the charging cable cables can sometimes
0:38
become damaged or wear out preventing
0:40
them from effectively charging the
0:42
speaker if you suspect the cable is the
0:44
issue try using a different one to see
0:47
problem next check the power outlet as
0:51
it's possible the outlet itself isn't
0:52
providing power try plugging your
0:54
speaker into a different Outlet to
0:56
ensure the issue isn't with your power
0:57
source lastly take a look at the
1:00
charging port on your speaker dust and
1:02
debris can accumulate and block the
1:04
connection gently cleaning the port with
1:06
a soft brush or a can of compressed air
1:09
can remove any blockages and help
1:10
restore the connection addressing these
1:13
points should help you identify the

1:27
aligned and clean use a dry soft cloth
1:30
to wipe away any dirt or debris on the
1:32
contacts if your sonus move still won't
1:35
turn on try using a USBC cable connected
1:37
to the port located on the back of the
1:39
speaker above the charging contacts make
1:42
sure the USBC cable is fully inserted
1:44
into your speaker and a compatible power
1:47
source the ideal power adapter should be
1:49
a USB CPD charger that outputs at least
1:52
45 wats though you can use a 36 w
1:55
charger for slower charging this step
