JL audio amp in Protect mode

Can any one tell my why or how to get the amp out of protect mode? All of a sudden the amp just stop playing.. I didn't do anything to the amp, but I did try to troubleshoot it after it stopped playing.. I disconnected it and see if the amp would switch back to normal operating mode, but that didn't happen after I connected everything back up. I'm starting to feel that the amp might just be fired..

Oh by the way it's a class D JX 500/1 mono amp

Unless there is an electronics specialty store near by (not just a place that sells car stereos) you're going to need to send it to JL and have them troubleshoot it. You can ask the car stereo places if they know of any but don't take it in as a regular installer wouldn't know what to do.

I got the amp back about a week ago.. They didn't repair it, they just gave me a "NEW". It looks new, but it might be a refurbish one. Anywho.. now my Alpine 10 inch sub has stopped working now... No sound is coming out of it.. I guess I will end up having to buy another one now. Any good ones on the market in to 0 to 150 range?

Does it have a deep base sound to it? I might get one if I can get it for a decent price
