Any suggestions?

Was it working perfectly in the car and just started this all of a sudden?
Easy to recreate on the bench?
No intermittently shorted inductors?

Twist/push/pull them while the amp is trying to power up to see if the amp changes its behavior.
L301 is the output filter.
There is corrosion on the metal grounding tab. Are the connections to the ground still OK?
