Default Amps won't come on...

Lunch break, stereo played as usual. Get in car to drive home and nothing...

I have 2 amps and neither will turn on. Head unit is working as normal. I checked the wiring in back of head unit and going into amps and everything looks good. Also checked the fuses and didnt see one blown, but that has got to be it...

Anyone have any suggestions?

Amp not coming has 4 causes. Loose power, loose gound, loose remote or blown fuse. Did you check amp fuse and wire fuse?

Found the problem last night. It was the main fuse coming off the power line hooked to the battery. It looked fine, but i guess from heat and age had cracked inside and failed. Thanks for helping!

Apparently this happens a lot. i checked everything and found nothing and had to go to stereo shop and pay $27 and it was the first thing the guy checked. Oh well, at least it works now...
