check and see if one of the wires has come off and grounded/touched the other speaker wire. did he replace the factory speakers and is it installed good or taped in there?

wiring came loose, or the internal amplifier fried.
one of the two.

that or somehow the internal amp was disabled in the menu if the unit you have allows for that.. so pre-outs are enabled and amplifier is shut off

you probably shorted it out when it was wired wrong the first time you gave it power.
you can replace the deck or hope warrany will cover the damages if its new.
