Amplifier

Ok had some water in the boot

Fixed that , was coming in around the 3rd brake light and one of the vents behind the side carpet.

Not excessive just a damp boot/ damp smell and a misty rear window /small amount of water in the battery tray.

Dried it all out and leak checked and no more water getting in,
However today my stereo didn't work, lights on etc but no music, checked the amplifier and the plug was slightly loose, thought maybe I'd knocked it when cleaning etc?
Reattached and it was fine for that journey but now nothing at all !

I've had it apart and it looks absolutely mint inside, reading old posts this is a fairly common issue and a replacement is looking expensive.
There is talk of a separate fuse actually on the amplifier? But I couldn't see it
I checked the normal fuses but they are fine.

Does anybody repair these?
Does anybody know where this mystery fuse is?
Does anyone have a spare amplifier that I don't have to sell a kidney for!!!!

See pictures please

OK I've sourced one from ebay
Will it need to be coded to the car?
Or is it just plug and play?
I have a creator 310+ will that be able to do it if required?
