    Question Amp Stuck in Protection mode?

    Hello everyone
    One of my amps has stoped working, It still powers on but wont play a sub on any of the 4 channels. The system was running fine for the last 2 days and was secured into my boot. I notice that the Red LED 'Protection' light is on, does this mean my amp is in protection mode? If so is there anyway to switch it off? Iv checked and double checked all my wiring and earths and they seem fine. I also have another amp + Sub and they run fine.
    Any help is apreciated
    Thanxs

    Have you checked your fuses. I checked all my wires to work out why my amp was in protect, after a few hours I looked at the fuses and goddamn it.
