Subs Not Working After Battery Jumped

I went out to my car the other day and the battery was completely dead. I had to call AAA, and they came out and jumped my battery, but I forgot to pull my fuse out of my power line before. When I got into my car my subs weren't hitting. So I checked all of the fuses in the power line, and amp. They are all good, and I don't see anything amiss. Anyone have any insight into what might have happened? I don't think my amp was blown because the lights still come on. Thanks Guys

I suggest you remove the fuse; wait around 30 seconds and reinsert the fuse.

Well the lights can come on but the amp can still be fried..but if the lights come on then obviously the fuse seems to be ok..try wat pinebaron suggested and also just check the wiring to the subs..good luck

I would also suggest you use MB roadside, it's free for the life of the vehicle.

I tried taking the fuse out and waiting and putting it back in with no luck. I can't really tell if the amp is on or not. I have the Alpine PDX 1.600. There is just a blue square screen on the top and to tell you the truth I have never looked at the screen while the car is on, when the amp worked. Now the screen is just blue so I'm not sure if something is supposed to be on there. It looks in some pictures elsewhere that the screen illuminates blue. If that is a light and it doesn't light up does that mean the amp is completely shot? Or is there some hope for it? Thanks For Your Help
