Rockford Power 501bd Paperweight??

Ok so I have two 12" Punch 2's running off a Power 501bd amp right now. So im driving around tonight with one of my friends, not pushing the subs/amp anymore than normal, then I realized I had no bass. I havent had a chance to take the amp out yet, because this happened at about 11:15 tonight. Im hoping I just blew a fuse somewhere. There is no protect light that I know of on the amp and the RF light isnt on. Any ideas on what it might be?

Ok so I opened up the amp and it seems fine. However I tried turning it on again today and nothing. So I swapped in another amp to see if it was maybe my wiring and the other amp tunred right on. Any ideas on what it might be?
