Re: sterio stopped working

Do your amps still have power when this happens?

Check all your connections, sounds like you have some loose RCA's, or bad ground, or loose power wire connector.

Check everything out, and see if everything is connected securely.

it was actually none of those. the fuse that my power wire has on it the metal started to melt the glass but the fuse didnt blow it just wasnt having a constant flow so it wouldnt work new fuse fixed the problem.
