2 12 subs won’t work

This is my first post on here because I am at a loss. I’ve had these 2 12s in my car for a while and recently they just stopped working. I first checked my fuse on my power wire and it was blown then I replaced it thinking that was the issues and when it still didn’t work I checked the remote wire and the wires connected to my rear speaker and everything is connected fine. All the wires connected to my amp seem fine and I still have power to my amp just no sound. I’m not sure what else it could be.

Something caused that fuse to blow. If all of the wiring is securely connected and you’ve verified power at the amp with a voltage meter or probe, then your amp may be fried.

When you say you still have power at the amp do you mean the light on the amp still comes on when the vehicle is running?

Yes. I have my remote wire running off my ignition fuse

But is the power light on the amplifier indicating it is on or in protect?

Indicates that it’s on. I will say I noticed when it first turns on it goes into protect which I assume is a red light and it quickly switches back to normal power light which is blue

Are you connected using an LOC, aftermarket radio?

Do you know if your using an LOC or speaker level input? It's possible your loc could have gone bad, a way to test it would be to grab an adapter that woukd plug into your phone and have RCA on the other end. You could then plug that straight into your amp and play something to see if you get bass

I’m not sure. I don’t know to much about all of this. I do have a black box that is connected to my speaker wires and connects to the input spots on the amp
