Send to an amp repair company. Sounds like you fried the power supply

try www.db-r.com

I'd hit that so fucking hard whoever pulled me out would be King of England.

Lol... looks like we were on the same page. Car-B-Ques suck.

ya, tires and paint burning make the marshmallows taste funny.

haha I did that...kind of.

Did you try replacing the fuses?

Was there any smoke?

Could just be one transistor

I hooked up the speaker speaker output on a cheap visonik amp into the battery positive and negative.

luckily it only blew one transistor and I replaced it.

I only really damaged one thing when I first got into computers and it's been the same for car audio (only that amp so far)

Like the other guy said you can send it in if you have the cash (or if it's under warranty) or you can try to fix it yourself.

edit: wait, a ground in the remote hookeup? is that it? are you sure you didn't hit any other wires anywhere?

Assuming the positive was secured in the right place, I don't see a ground in the remote port causing any damage...but I could be wrong...just doesn't sound like it would do anything. Are you 100% sure you didn't hit it on the positive at all or somewhere else on the amp?

i suck men dry...email me for details

wow, my 4 gauge woudnt fit in my remote hookup i dont think

i accidentally crossed power and ground once on my amp, thought i bought a busted amp, but the ground and power were in a switched position form my previous amp and it was just sort of habit to put it there, ow i read first install later

Do everything with the battery disconnected, check, and check again.
