What it usually is
Garage and outdoor outlets are commonly on a GFCI that may be in the garage, a bathroom or outdoors. Moisture or a failed appliance can trip it.
What to do first
Press RESET on GFCI outlets in the garage and nearby bathrooms, and check for a tripped breaker without removing any panel cover.
