He's only got 2ch's G. I think the rears are running off the HU.

I tried plugging rca intk rear inputs with no luck. Unless the rca's are bad. Like i said though. It was working fine. If I had hair to pull out. It'd be gone.

Check the head unit to see if the fade control is set right. HU can loose all settings if the battery goes belly up.

Ha! Well that narrows it down. The RCA's are bad. The speaker wire connections are shaky or the amp quit. His two channels aren't working.

For some reason I'm not buying that the rca's just went bad. You checked all the setting on the HU including the fade? Brent, tell us exactly how you have the head unit wired and how it goes to the amp out of the amp. Have you tried to use the high input harness for the amp and wire the hu front outs to the amp eliminating the low (rca) inputs?

Btw what speakers are you running in the front? That amp is a beast and can blow a lot of speakers if gain is too high.
