when the protection light goes on, it usually means one of the following:
1. too low of an impedence
2. amp overheating due to not having enough air circulation or surrounding temperature is hot.
3. wires may be touch other electrical wires (such as + touching -)
4. it's a legacy...NUFF said. j/k..
also check your RCA cables and make sure you have them plugged all the way in and not loose. if amp goes on, but no sound from speakers and sub, then ground the amp's ground wire to a different source. if that doesn't work, borrow a friend's amp and try it out and see if it's still the same.. good luck
