Did all 2 or 4 stop at once? If so, it Could be a couple different things. Check for a grounded out speaker. If one speaker is grounded out it would shut all of them down.

a 96 ford ranger( If it had a factory cassette and had an auto set button on the radio) has a factory amplifier. On your wire harness adaptor you need to make sure any blue/ blue/white wires are hooked up.. they may have come loose. If everything looks good as far as wiring your amplifier may have went bad. If thats the case you can go to the amplifier location and splice the inputs to the outputs and run the speakers directly from your head unit. Below is the wiring info for your truck

If you were using your stock speaker wiring to high level input on the sub amp, that is your problem, because those wires are coming off the stock amp. Bad mojo.
