I think my amp died

So for the past few weeks at times my amp has cut out and i had no subs, but if i played with the wires or hit the amp and wires it would come back, also taking a bump would make it work

but today i think it died, no power going to the amp and the controller

the fuse is fine, i even replaced it and nothing, checked the hook up to the battery that was tight

Any ideas or suggestions, looks like i need to get a new amp

yeah what he said^ if not get a tester and check the power cable to where it connects to the amp some amps need atleast 12 volts to even go on, go along the power cable and make sure theres no breaks in the cable
