Bose Outlet Under Sink Counter - Not Working

Might anyone have any ideas about how to re-energize (fuse, breaker, etc.) the outlet that is located under the sink counter that is used to power the Bose unit? 

I have my central vacuum plugged into that outlet and it isn't working (I previously unplugged the Bose unit/surge protector because I never use it and it took a bunch of power, just on standby.)

I tested the outlet with a hair dryer, and there's no power.  I reset all the breakers under the bed and checked all the fuses there, but no luck.  Nothing is labeled as to what circuit this outlet is part of.  And all the other outlets around there are working fine.

Are there any other GFI's to check?  The only one I know of is in the bathroom.

Our coach has a GFCI under the kitchen counter near the refrigerator that controls the downstream 110v outlets. I had to replace this within the past year. I believe that the GFCI outlets do wear out over time.

Have you looked at your 110 vac drawing in your owners manual?  It should identify which breaker has that outlet on it.

If you have a volt meter you can check power into breakers and out of them.  You might have a bad breaker.

Thanks Carol & Scott, I should have thought of that.  Will check it out.

invaluable. On my coach that outlet runs off the inverter panel.

Figured out that this plug is part of circuit 1, and now realize that nothing on that circuit works (TV, electronics cabinet, etc.)  Still can't find any additional GFI outlets, even though the manual states one should be in the dinette (just a regular outlet there) and one should be on the hutch base (I don't have a hutch.)  And nothing under the kitchen counter.

Flipped on and off all the breakers.

Next step will be testing the breaker.

These breakers have a finite life.  I have replaced a couple and carry a spare (not the most common type, they can be hard to find)

Thanks everyone, this is resolved. 

Finally remembered that this circuit is run through the aux inverter that is installed.  And that inverter is run through a switch, which was switched to "inverter."  So the circuit wouldn't be powered unless the aux inverter is powered on, or unless that switch is set to "Off" or "Main Inverter."

I really appreciate everyone jumping in to help.  At least now I have a better understanding of these circuits.
