DRL's

im sorry this is about a 4th gen, but its all the same for a third gen, i need help on it so mods can u please not lock it?

ok, i did a home made DRL mod, i got instuctions from here and my problems are: instead of the high element lighting when i put it in the "on" position the low element lights. problem 2 is that the turn signals work when the headlights/parking lights ARENT on. problem 3, when the parking lights are on, the high element are on instead of the low side. im kinda mad about this cause i spent $35 on the stuff to do it, and 2 hours of time to wire it all up, i hope yall can help

thanks in advance

I have the diagram for factory DRL's on a 3rdgen but it's a soild state unit. This is the best I ever came up with (based on guessing from the diagram) requiring 3 relays for proper operation (easily aquired from the junkyard for minimal cost). I didn't read the link but, the drawing makes absolute no sense due to lack of wiring description.
