Probably a fuse (or two). The fuse panel is on the left end of the dash. Check the COURTESY fuse for the lights, and the RADIO, RADIO ACCY, and PWR ACCY fuses for the radio. Don't just look at them (they can look fine but still be blown) - either test them or replace them with a known good fuse. If I had to guess I would say the PWR ACCY fuse is the problem because it feeds the BCM which controls the radio and the courtesy lights.

Do your power windows work? I had trouble with my radio turning off intermittantly, and when it would, my power windows didn't work either. Ended up being a BCM problem.
