Amp doesn’t seem to be getting power

[john9721]

Looking for some suggestions or help, working on a Hifonics 1200 watt amp; was working fine until a few days ago, now won’t get power. The blue “Hifonics” letters light up very dim, not like normal, but the power light on the amp doesn’t come on. Checked power, ground and remote turn on wire, and also the fuse on the power wire and all check out fine. Any suggestions? Also, pulled the 70A fuse out from the amp. Doesn’t appear broken on the inside but both blades have brownish/blackish coating on it, almost looks burnt. Any path there? Thanks!

How did you "check" your power, ground and remote? With a Multi meter or by looking at them?
