kicker kx800.4 stuck in protect mode

[ivkata]

so I'm going over some old amps i have here .this is kicker kx800.4 that originally had bad power supply fets -1 on each side so i removed them all and installed irfz44n instead of the irfz46n to do further testing . Amp stays in protect -there is no gate voltage on the the power supply ,the rail voltage is 5 volts . I have not tested for audio out due to low rail voltage

i think the op amp is getting the unit in protection. I have tested all outputs and they are good. The unit dosent draw extensive current

here is the test of both ic
TL494CN

Pin 1: 1.1
Pin 2: 3.1
Pin 3: 4.4
Pin 4: 0.02
Pin 5: 1.4
Pin 6: 3.1
Pin 7: 0
Pin 8: 10.4
Pin 9: 0
Pin 10: 0
Pin 11: 11
Pin 12: 12
Pin 13: 4.7
Pin 14: 4.7
Pin 15: 4.7
Pin 16: 11.5

i think its the voltage on pin 16 getting the unit in protect

the op amp lm324n


Pin 1: 0
Pin 2: 3
Pin 3: 2.2
Pin 4: 12
Pin 5: 1.8
Pin 6: 3.1
Pin 7: 0
Pin 8: 11
Pin 9: 3.1
Pin 10: 0.3
Pin 11: 0
Pin 12: 0.35
Pin 13: 0.35
Pin 14: 0

I think its the op amp sending my amp in protect .any ideas

Remove the rectifiers. Does the amp still go into protect mode?

removed the rectifiers and the amp is still in protection .i just remembered that actually only 1 side of the power supply had a bad transistor

I think the LM324 is defective.
