Sounds like an internal problem. first disconnect all spks from amp, then switch on head unit and check if amp turns on (LED ON?) then feel the heatsink, if heatsink gets terribly hot then amp has internal fault. if amp doesnt get hot then try connecting a single working speaker to each channel separately, it may occur that one channel is faulty only. amps can shut down if the speaker/s is faulty as well, check all speakers and spk wires for shorts before taking amp in for repair. cheers

after doing some tests I found that I had two blown speakers on the same side.
To veriry I took one speaker frome the goo side and hooked it up
and it worked at both locations (floor and door) tweeters seem to be ok
I hope it didn't hurt the amp on that side but it ran a lot cooler
than before
Thanks for the help

After doing some checking I got a burn smell from the right side and it apears that I have two blown speakers.
the tweeters seem to be ok
I tested by taking a speaker from the floor on the other side and hooked it to both locations and it worked
The amp also ran a lot cooler
I hope it didn't harm that side of the amp I will find out when i get new speakers
Thanks for all the help
