Connect it with no load ( subs disconnected ). If the amp powers up ok with no load on it, you may want to check your subs and connections. You could still be faced with a bad amp. Storing equipment can be bad if they are not kept in a clean, dry location for the duration of storage. Subs can also cause problems if moisture gets into the voice coil. What you have will require several steps of troubleshooting to locate the problem.

i'm leaning toward a wiring issue.

when nothing is connected to the amp (speaker terminals) does it stay on or shut off?
