No, you can't bridge three to one.

You can bridge two to one.

Take the amp to a stereo repair shop and get an estimate on how much the repair cost would be. It could be something stupid like a broken solder joint, which costs you like $5.00 to fix.

nope, you can't bridge 3 channels. Basically, you can use 2 channels of the amp only to power a set of speakers. That is not enough power for a sub.
