You need to do some actual troubleshooting.

*does the amp power up?
*verify that signal wires to amp are still firmly connected at both the amp and the headunit
*verify that speaker leads are firmly connected at both the amp and the speaker
*did you blow a fuse on the amp?
*verify that your headunit is still sending signal to the subwoofer

I doubt you blew the speaker, because it would still try to work and it would NOT sound pretty.....

if you blew your sub, you'll hear a crackling noise instead of bass, if you don't hear anything, its either you blew a fuse, fried your amp, or one of the wires isn't connected enough. if your amp turns on, then off really quick when you turn the ignition, you either have a bad ground, or the remote turn on wire isn't connected firmly, if it doesn't turn on at all, check all wires and fuses.
