I am guessing you have the stock radio/CD changer which is actually made by 
Eclipse, not Fujitsu.  Anyhow, the amp is really easy to damage because it 
is installed under the passenger's seat and when you have passengers in the 
back seat, their feet can knock the amp.  Not much thought put into the 
subject by Alfa, because the power and the signal chords also point towards 
the rear passenger's feet and when they get kicked they damage the amp 
board's solder.  The problem I am guessing is intermittent which means that 
you would have to be pretty patient figuring out which connection is 
bad.  Alternatively you have the options of having Eclipse in LA fix it for 
you for $150 (!!!) or if you are lucky get one from Alfa Parts Exchange in 
Hayward for $50 (I did this btw!)
