Check for shorting of speaker cable. Your amp may be stuffed as well.

When mine did it it was because the gain was too high, causing the amp to overheat

check nothing is shorting out (earth, speaker wire, remote wire, power) if it all fine try turning the gain down and the level down. still not working, new amp me thinks...

EDIT: could try relocation to better ventelated area too....
