Measure the DC voltage directly across the terminals of the diode at the base of the relay. Do you have approximately 0v or approximately 12v?
All of the previous tests were to determine if there was a reason for the relay not to engage. It appears that the amp is working properly.

One more question Perry, The 3.3k Resistors R156, R198, R205, & R216. What is the part number? I looked on Digi-key and want to make sure I get the right one. I accidentally chipped off some of the ceramic coating, or what ever it is. I was trying to make the amp look nicer by pulling it up into place, it was crushed down.
Well, I received the parts today and it works! The only problem is they sent me the relay with the sealed case and not the open one. So the crossover board doesn't screw down. I rigged it for now by desoldering the pins and pushing them down farther through the board to allow them to make proper contact and added spacers to keep it from bending the board. I will just make a new endcap and shave the pots down a hair. I learned alot and am glad that it's working again. I appreciate all your help. Thanks again.
I will have to take some pics to show you, my relay sits under the crossover board. My relay is not enclosed in a case because of this to allow it fit under the board. I've seen the pics of the boards with the relay between the caps, but haven't seen anyway like this on here. When I ordered it, it showed the correct relay and said you had to order the cover. I don't know what happened but it works. Ill try to post them tomorrow.
