Idle current is a small amount of current that is flowing through the output stage of the amp with no signal applied. If this current is too high, it could lead to the amp overheating and eventual failure. If it is too low, it will cause distortion in your audio output.
Are all the wires hooked in right? On the bare parts of the wires, are there any 2 wires touching? Most importantly, do you have the correct fuse for the stereo?
When you say the 40 Amp fuse blew. Was it your mains battery fuse or was it the fuse on the amplifier? If it was the fuse on the amplifier then you may have hurt the amplifier. The Kenwood KAC-8101D is a 1000 Watt monoblock amplifier. Therefore if you say that 1 of your woofers is not playing, then it is almost certainly blown if you are sure it is connected correctly. Try disconnecting it and only running the woofer that tries to play. If this woofer is still working correctly, you will notice a drastic drop if the sound of your bass. The reason for this is because you have changed the impedance load on your amplifier due to the fact that the other woofer is not working. Have your working woofer checked and replace the faulty woofer then you should be banging again.
