Default Amp/Sub suddenly stopped working

My sub/amp was working great until yesterday it just stopped working. When I turn on the car I see the amp power on and then turn off after a few seconds, any thoughts? thanks I checked the fuse on the power wire from the amp and it doesn't "seem" to be broken no burns or broken pieces inside.

Thanks for any help

Pull the fuse and ohm it out to make sure. Sounds more like a bad ground though.

Just because it worked before doesn't mean the ground cable couldn't shift, etc

I think it was a combination of the ground/fuse I stripped more wire to ground and then installed a new fuse as well.
