turned music up last night and my subs went off
Went to main fuse under the bonnet that was fine 
took that fuse apart and re wired it and was still the same. Checked the fuses on the amp itself they are all fine as well but still no power to the amp.
So then i bridged the remote wire straight to the power on the amp (blue remote to red 4 gauge power wire) and the power came on but the subs stayed off 
Totally baffled does anybody no what could have happened ? or how i can fix it
thanks

Aye usually means that the turn on light is getting its earth from another channel such as the earth from the RCA's. Try taking the RCA's out of the amp when you bridge the power and see if the light goes off
