Funny you should ask, i swapped it with a different one and it worked. It was odd that it would turn on and function propley without sound no? Also, i think the amp is toast. I connected it directly to the battery to test and it was still in protection mode. Even got a clean ground behind the fuel filler tube.

power up the amp without RCAs or speaker wires hooked up.
if it goes into protect, you have a bad amp or inadequate power/ground
connections.
if not, hook up RCAs - if this causes it to go into protect, there's your
likely problem
if not, hook up speaker wires - if this causes it to go into protect, you
probably have a short in your wiring or your sub has too low impedance
