If its just doing a thump sounds like you got a bad amp. your best friend is a MM multi meter. test your subs OHM. if its good it will read proper ohm if you get say you have a 2 ohm sun you get anything below that like 00 your sub is bad. you can also use the MM to test the out put of your amp. go to youtube many videos on both these situations. here is one for you.
SOURCE: amp staying in protection mode
No, this amp is not a heavy power consumer- matter of fact it takes very little power to run.Maybe you should check the fuses on the amp to see if they are what is recommended.Also check your fuse kit to your amp- your fuse might not be big enough.If neither works take it back where u got it.
SOURCE: Amp Power light will not go on. Protection light is lit- Thump sound in speakers
It probably has shorted output transistors. To eliminate other possible causes, read through the following page.
Amplifier in Protect Mode - Troubleshooting
Let me know if you have any other questions.
SOURCE: rockfordfosgate P6002 amp protect light goes on
are u sure u have them running at the right ohms, for not only the subs but the amp too...if you go lower than your amp is rated you can fry stuff...via protect mode......hopefully this helps
SOURCE: I have a phonic powerpod 7. the speaker
In bridge mode, the left and right amplifiers are in essence connected together. Typically, the speaker connections are to the positive connectors for each channel for this mode. WIth the speakers still connected, you essentially shorted the outputs to ground and smoked the output section. The unit will detect this now and not turn on the output section. Your unit is in what is usually called "protect" mode. This unit will require repair. Expect to have the output transistors replaced at the very least. I would estimate around $16-$40 for parts.

SOURCE: JBL amp, worked fine untill 2 days ago. protection light on..
might have roasted your speakers voice coils a little which may be sending the amp into protect mode throw a speaker on it that you know works and if it doesnt trigger the protect circuit then you probably have a blown or almost sub.
