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.

Tacoma's North End is mostly older single-family homes on leafy streets, with Craftsman and early-1900s houses that have been updated over the years. Older North End houses often keep some original pipe behind remodeled walls, so it is worth knowing what is actually in the wall before a fixture swap.
