I am betting once you turn the gains down and set them correctly your problem will be gone.

So glad to be a help man. Like SQ and I said running an amp wide open is not good. The Amp itself was recognizing that it was sending a way too powerful signal, thus it turns itself off for "Protection" of itself and the speakers.
Awesome you got it working man, now when its gets a little warmer out you can roll with the windows down like this
Have a good one brother.
