radio dead

On my 1979 300SD, the radio suddenly has no power. The cigarette lighter also does not work. Have checked fuses and they are good. It seems there is no power reaching radio.
Any suggestions?

Could it be

that you have a bad ground wire? Check the other items on the same circuit and see if they work.
