If it is new it has to be simple, like said, in the dark see if a light comes on the amp, if no light than you do not have power to it. This is how it goes, head unit-amp with RCA plugs, wires from amp to speakers, like you said, normal wires, it is that simple, if the head unit works it has to be the amp. I would figure it out myself, the dealer will have it for a week, walk all over it like a rug, break something, scratch something not mount it right or make it worse. Audio is the guy to call, he does this for a living. Once you get the amp out, mount it where it can be serviced because fuses blow and wires come off and if it is mounted as said it was done wrong to start with. Plus it needs to breath, maybe it over heated being so crammed in. I would say the first step is to get the amp out.
