Well, if your amp has broken parts..........that's not a good sign...

Depending on the size of the subwoofer, you're probably gonna need an amp to drive it. You can see if it powers up. Just hook up the speaker wires carefully....pos to pos, neg to neg. Be sure not to cross any wires. Most speaker wire has a tracer on the positive side to help eliminate crossed wires......

Sounds like you're gonna need a new amp though, from what you've posted.........
