Amp cut off and no protection light! Help/Tried everything

[dr3wzrdroid1]

So I was driving down my neighborhood yesterday just banging with the volume on 28/62 on my pioneer head unit and next thing I know is my subs just turn off. And I turn into a subdivision to check it out and I see that my amp is not on, it wasnt in protection mode or anything. No power. I know its not a ground problem, I checked the fuses and remote I know its nothing to do with that and btw the amp is pretty much new, I've only had it for 2 weeks. What do you think the problem is?

Oh yeah and I checked the inline AGU fuse near the battery and it had a brown tip on the side do you think that it blew? And if so what caused it to blow and how do I know if its even blown? I need to get this system up and going asap! Please let me know

change that fuse.. check the remote wire. also if you were feeding it high voltage it coulda popped the PS

I double checked the remote wire so I know its not that and my voltage stays at a 13.8 and goes lowest to a 12.9 maybe this is off all stock with a bigger battery in the front. Btw how much is a fuse and should I get a bigger one or upgrade to ANL right now I have a 60A AGU Fuse. Also what is PS? I'm some what of a noob this is my first system but I set it up myself and I know a thing or 2 about systems but I don't know whats wrong with it.

Ahhh and well for now its a temporary amp. I have 2 VVX 12s running off of a Lanzar MAXP1200 and it was running fine for a good 2-3 weeks but now I don't know what is up with it and it doesn't overheat neither because I set my gains correctly and I have it in a good spot. I doubt anything is wrong with the amp though.
