Entertainment/Radio went out suddenly-no power to radio or amp.

Over this past weekend the radio suddenly cut out. I was not jamming it at the time. It has done this in the past when I was playing it loud and all I had to do was flip the entertainment switch off, then back on and all was back to normal. This time I was playing it at a normal volume when it cut out. I have no power to the head unit in the cabin and the amplifier is not on. I'm wondering if something happened to the radio itself and therefore not kicking the amp on either. OR did something happen in the entertainment breaker circuit thats not providing juice to anything. I'm just "fishing" to see if anyone else had a problem like this. I hate electrical problems. Time to get out the test light and start tracing back to where I'm losing power I guess...

Probably is time, but be sure to check for fuses/cb's under the helm as well as in the engine room before you start digging too deep.
