W123 300d fog lamps not working

I have a. 1983 300d and both fogs have quit working they were working fine last time over the weekend and all I did since was power wash the engine bay and run a wire for the temp gauge on the dash. All fuses are good and the fuse for the fogs is also for one of the headlights so I figure That it can't be that. Any ideas of where to start looking for the problem?

First look for proper wiring connections of fog lamp. Also check the wires for any breakage. Secondly, go through the individual connection of fuse for both the lamps. This is where you should start looking for problems.
