the connections on your deck may have come loose. pull it out and check. The wires may have also shorted out, check all connections.

I hope you diddn't wire the amp to your speakers, the stock speakers aren't capable of much wattage.

Check your fuses.

^ agreed - where exactly did you hook up the amp in the first place?

another thing to look for is a shorted - blown speaker... it can cause the speakers running off of the deck to shut down (that is if you did not wire the amp up to the interior speakers)

I recently had a problem because i installed a 200w head unit, pushing 50 watt to each speaker.
I replaced the front speakers with 120w (capable) 3-way pioneers
BUT, i left the rears stock (had to order 2 more for rear) The headunit was pushing too much wattage to the rears, they were gagging and sending it back to the fronts, the fronts were then making wierd popping noises, all because the power was too great.

Make sure your not pushing too much power to un-capable speakers.

I've since-then installed all 4 pioneers, sounds GREAT, no popping anymore.
