It could be overheating or possibly a fuse and also check all of your connections to make sure they are good! I had that problem once! maybe even try disconnecting it for a day then reconnect it and see if that works

it could be overheating, voltage spiking, or be gettin the wrong impedance. how many ohm stable is the amp and what did you wire the subs at.

This could very much be your problem. Wrong impedence for amplifier. Amplifier may not be able to handle the load you are putting on it.

your amp has bad connections... im 90% positive. Make sure your ground has a clean contact to bare metal... not paint
