HELP! I just installed a JL500/1D amp today to run a 10 inch JL sub along with a Pioneer GMA6704 4 ch amp to run (4 ) 6 1/2 coaxials. I am an amateur at this and know bare basics. Probably got in a little too deep over my head. When I ran my wiring my Pioneer amp would not power on, but the JL amp did, hooray for me. The green light was on on the JL. No light was on on the Pioneer. In an effort to check my power cable to the amps I unhooked the power wire from the JL and plugged it into the Pioneer, knowing the JL had power. Still no power to the Pioneer, still no light. Then came my bigger problem. I unhooked the power wire from the Pioneer, turned the car off, took the keys out of the ignition and hooked the power wire back to the JL amp. When the wire hit the terminal it sparked ( I guess there was still current in the wire or maybe it accidentally touched the ground when I did it). Either way now my green light on the JL is off and the amp light is red in protect mode. Is it fried? Can it be reset? Do I need to send it back? Lots of issues here I know.... Any help is appreciated.
