Gary,

First of all, replace the fuse(s). Does this fix the problem?

Second:

How old is your amp? What brand/model is it?

Has a lot of dust accumulated inside?

Do you own a cat, and could it have peed inside? [Seriously.]

Third:

Is there a reset option?

 All the fuses are good, amplifier is 3 years old. I have no pets, took off the cover and is very clean inside. It is a jolida jd1501p, it seems to boot up normal, not in protect mode. Has zero output, nothing even when ear up to speaker. When turned on goes from flashing red to solid blue as normal. Might be missing a relay click when blue light appears, not really sure about that though. Thanks for help...

Call Jolida at (301) 953-2014. They have had some issues in the past and would know better than anyone what might cause this.

Good luck!

See if you get any AC voltage across the speaker terminals.
