From experience I can tell you to always disconnect the postive cable amp to battery connection, you know pull out the fuse. I've "fried" an MTX 2300x by not doing that one night. I was readjusting the + and - connections on the amp and I saw a bright spark and a heard a loud spark noise, and that was the amp beign "fried". If I were you I would just take it to your local car audio installation place and have them look at it and tell you what's going on. From what the car audio place tells you, you will learn and remember for next time, that's how I did it. I payed attention and learned what to do and what not to do. I had to send the amp to MTX and they fixed it, they told me that they "gutted" out the amp. I also had an Audiocontrol crossover that went bad, I sent it to them and they fixed it. Also one time one of my JL 12W6's went out, I sent it to them and they replaced it. That's how it is sometimes when you have a car stereo. Good Luck, let us know what the shop told you.
