Sure it has power? what model zapco? Did you test for power with a DMM at rem, power, and recheck ground. There is only 3 connections. check em again yourself.

Well I would think the installer just did what he was asked. If you said "install this amp", and the amp was bad, thats not the installers fault, unless they installed it incorrectly. Are you sure the amp worked that you got off Ebad? Did the installer bench test the amp? If they benched it and it worked, then yes, go after the installer. but if it was DOA, and not tested, then the installer should have picked up on it when setting it up. but just for the heck of it, I would test for power on the feed, rem, and ohm out ground. Alternativly, bring it to another audio shop for proof that the first installer damaged it. Its a he said/she said situation. And unless you got some kind of warranty or return protection, it may be your problem now.
