how much do you think it will cost me to repair it?
If the overcurrent of DC offset lights are not green, the amplifier probably has blown output transistors.
To eliminate other problems, disconnect all speaker wires from the speaker terminals of the amp and disconnect signal cables from the amp. If it powers up normally (all lights green), the wiring needs to be checked. If it still shuts down, the amp likely has blown output transistors.

Signal cable = RCA cables

If any LED goes red with nothing connected excpt the B+/ground/remote, the amp is blown.

B+ = positive 12v connection to the battery

It can be repaired. Call some of the local car audio shops to see who they use for amp repairs. If you find one shop that's used by several shops, it's probably reliable.

Repair charges vary greatly so it's difficult to know what the repair will cost. Get an estimate or set a limit on the repair total when you drop the amp off for repair. If it costs more than half the price of a replacement, you should probably replace it instead of repairing it.
