do you have yourself a multimeter... test the subs and see what impedance (ohms) they read

also wiggle the ground post on the battery and see how loose it is. the stock cobalt terminals are pretty weird so if the ground is loose that might be what causing it to go into protect. a loose power terminal may also cause it but more likely to blow the fuse

 

it does stay in protect it just shuts off like it doesnt get anypower in my car

 

test different speakers...might save you a lot of time

 

huh?

 

un plug both subs and see what happens....?

 

i was having similar problems and it was all in the STOCK BATTERY AND STOCK TERMINALS. upgrade with a bigger battery and some new terminals after you have checked out all of your connections and checked to make sure the speakers are not blown. god this audio stuff sucks sometimes.

 

it doesnt stay in protect mode.... it just shuts off like it doesnt get any power in my car

 

then either the amps fucked or one of your connections. if its reading 12v on the pos/ground and 12v on the remote then amp is fucked

 

well just got it tested at an audio store and every thing was fine with the amp....i guess i better learn how to hook up ****
