System no longer works after the cable pops off the battery.

[xniax1]

I hit a deer on the way home from work. It hardly did any damage to my truck but the impact knocked the negative cable off my battery. Along with the negative cable was the black wire running from my AMP. I reattached the cable to the battery and now only one of fog lights work along with my system not working.

The little green Power Protection light on the amp is on though. any suggestions? thank you all very much for reading my thread.

You've got a bad connection on the battery most likely which is causing a large voltage drop and the amp is in undervoltage protection. As far as the fog light, you probably did a little more damage than you think. Check the connections and the bulb for the light.
