If both have stopped working it’s most likely either that, a bad connection between the two rotors of the switch, or a bad solder joint on the cap.

1) adding a jumper link to the previously unused terminal on the selector switch.
2) disconnecting the wire that previously carried the signal form the middle pickup and reconnecting it to the previously unused terminal?
Option 1 results in the lower tone pot being shared between the bridge and middle pickup.
Option 2 leaves the middle pickup with no tone control.
Fender now insists on configuring some of its "modern" Stratocasters with the lower tone pot dedicated to the bridge pickup and the upper pot governing the other two. If your guitar was originally wired this way and, now, you have altered it, it is possible that signals are being sent to the wrong destinations or not arriving at all.
It is difficult to comment further without seeing photographs of the wiring in your actual guitar.
