Default LR2 Intermittent Electrical issue

Our 2008 LR2 has an issue that appear to show up at highway speeds. The Nav, Radio and a some of the dash indicators just turn off. Sometimes they come back on after a few seconds but other times we have to turn the car off and restart to get them to come back on. Any suggestions on where to start?

I wanted to post the resolution to this. After the dealer was useless (told me it had chipmunk damage and needed a new wiring harness). I took it to an independent LR shop. He found error codes the dealer did not. Did not see any damage to the wiring harness either. There were several electrical error codes and he methodically cleared them and checked after the problem occured until he was confident it was the amplifier. To be sure he took the amp out of an LR2 he had for sale to try for a day and sure enough that fixed it. Put old amp back in and problem returned. Long story short it was the amplifier. If I had of listened to the dealer I would have spent thousands on useless work. Icing on the cake was independent did oil change and normal service for half the price of the dealer. Needless to say I will not return the dealer.
