Amp problems

[Arntt 10+ year member]

Okay I'm going to try and explain this the best that I can. When I hit the switch to turn on my amplifier it comes on for a second and then the protection light comes on and it quits. I have checked the fuses and made sure all the wires were in so does anyone have any clue what might be wrong with it? Thanks in advance.

Have you unhooked the subs from it? Might try that and see if the protection is still on. Sounds like an internal problem probably. Hope not.

Okay, I unhooked the subs and the protection light didn't come on anymore and the amp worked fine. As soon as I hooked the subs back up a fuse on the amp blew and the protection light came on again and the amp quit. I have had this setup for close to two years now and this just happend out of nowhere. Help pleassseee
