So I just got back into playing guitar, been playing for ~2 weeks now and....my amp just up n stopped working on me.

As far as I know nothing happened to it, nothing hit it, spilled on it, dropped it, nothing.

This is a small practice-type Fender Bullet Reverb (I can go down to the basement and get specifics if you guys need em I'm just lazy :p).

I sat down and tuned my guitar using the cable plugged into a battery powered tuner, so I'm assuming the cable and hardware on the guitar itself are ok and this problem is with my amp.    I turn my power switch on, light comes on and I can hear the faint hiss amps normally makes when it is on, it gets louder if I turn the volume on the amp up (always normal amp noise as far as I know, very faint), and it gets a bit more intense if I turn on the distortion, but playing the guitar (yes I plugged it into the amp :p) produces no sound whatsoever.

I went ahead and opened it up and everything looks ok, like there aren't any obvious poor connections on the inside and no obvious physical damage, but beyond that I don't know what to do here.  Please help. :(
