If everything is right, maybe there's some installer error. You can also turn the sub on on the HU as mentioned, if it's not. Also you may have the amp hooked up to incorrect outputs of the HU, lastly, if you can't figure it out perhaps take it to a pro?

IDK if this helps but did you leave the stock bose amps in place? Did you bypass bose or leave it place?

Protection light = amp is bad or fuse is blown.
