Re: amp went into prot. and never came out
well you should get about 12-14 volts on the power. and you should get 0 on the ground.

Re: amp went into prot. and never came out
yeah, its funny, but, if your amp blows fuses, there is something wrong. If you amp is in protection, and stays there, The amp is fried. What model amp is it? Wanna sell it?

Re: amp went into prot. and never came out
just because the amp goes into protection that doesn't mean it's fried....there are a ton of things that can cause an amp to go into protection without there being a single thing wrong with the amp.
Check the voltage at the power and remote terminals on the amp

Re: amp went into prot. and never came out
did you replace the fuse in the power wire or just look at it?

Re: amp went into prot. and never came out
if it's an AGU fuse, the fuse itself can come detached from the end, it still looks normal from the outside, but it won't conduct anything. This has happened with 3 of my AGU fuses, I hate AGU....
