Common failure on these old fisher amps was the system control IC would lock up then not get a good reset. The only cure I found was to put in a little momentary switch to ground the reset line when this happens. Fishers cure was to replace the IC but I think it was a 100pin surface mount. Find IC701 on the front panel and ground pin 17 for a few seconds see if that restores operation.
