ok sorry about the double post earlier concering the schematics

ive found the problem with the amp

however, i do need a little pointer on how to proceed

the amp got fried and the circuit is broken in 2 spots on the circuit board

here are some pics

so what should i do?

should i just add a few drops of solder to reconect the 2 ends?

what can i do?

i would try to add the solder and bridge the two spots yes.

but if somthing like that happened, chances are that there is a capicator, resistor, crystal, or somthing else blown somewhere on the amp... you may not even be able to tell eaither.

give the solder a try.

ok i will

but....if there is other things that are burnt how would i verify whats is burnt?

do i have to connect it and just use a voltmeter to see if there is voltage running tru certain point of the amp???

I don't think that just adding solder would be a good idea, usually things tend to be made to an exact size with a certain amount of resistance...you could be ****ing up the impedance output on the amp. Either way, what have you got to lose, you might as well try it, but be careful with the volume once you got it done and have the sub hooked up, JIC you did something wrong. You don't want to **** up your sub also, that would be a real bummer, a blown sub and a fried amp //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crap.gif.7f4dd41e3e9b23fbd170a1ee6f65cecc.gif .
