Quoted from cosmokramer:

Yes, I am a dumbass....when I was installing a new dmd display in my NF I pinched the two wires for the backbox speakers in between the ground wire for the display where it connects to the bolt that holds the display in place...now I have no sound from the backbox speakers (cab speaker is ok)... I repaired the wires and checked the fuses but still no sound, just a very low crackle sound... any ideas where to troubleshoot?

likely took out the TDA2030A amp chip. It's the 5 legged transistor looking think on the large heat sink. (after checking continuity in the wire like Lloyd suggested)

you can sometimes verify the short in the amp. Meter out all 5 pins to each other. None of them should be a dead short. If you find one the amp is toast.

Check the resistors around the amp for that circuit. Sometimes one will burn with the amp.
