This doesn't necessarily mean the unit was "on", all it means was that the amp remote wire had 12 volts on it, which kept your amplifier turned on.

First thing to check is this, or some other similar wiring fault.

Check for things like blown fuses and such.

Try the player on AC power and see if you can get a boot log.

Make sure there's not a loose screw inside the player causing a short.
