They're pretty much unrelated to one another. The only thing I can think of is a common power circuit, or maybe their separate circuits both run thru one big connector (at the fuse box?) that's loose.

No, but a bad fuse could. Check the #15 fuse in the under dash fuse box, it's probably blown. I think it's a 15 amp.
