Ap 1000 amp checked wiring
The most common problem for the symptom you describe is a "ground loop". There's a slight difference in the ground potential between the source unit and the amp itself. It may be caused by a ground on one or both of the audio inputs. It may be caused by the amp case itself being fastened to a metal portion of the vehicle. It may be a grounded speaker lead.
Of course the amp itself could be defective.
1) Isolate the problem. Disconnect everything except power, ground, and remote.
2) Connect the subwoofer(s). If the symptom immediately returns, it's most likely the amp ground or a speaker lead.

Check to make sure that the "remote turn on" lead is intact. They are usually blue wires.This wire provided a turn on voltage to fire up the amp once the head unit is turned on.

Kegan... I tried and tried to find schematics and/or a troubleshooting guide with no luck! Sorry about that...
IF you can open it up, see if you find fried or destroyed parts? Look CAREFULLY for a blown fuse but know they come in MANY configurations now!
IF POSSIBLE, inspect the printed circuit board for any BURNT or open foil paths?
If all else fails ~ send it back to the factory for repairs. You should also receive the latest UPGRADES too and hopefully at least a 30 day warranty?
