Head Lights...Turn signal

I need help..for some reason after removing the relays out of the distribution box in the engine nothing works correctly. I replaced and double checked the charts and I re installed them correctly but now the driver side turn signal blinks unusally fast...the headlights will only work one at a time low beam drivers side if in low beam and passenger side low beam if in high beam???? One break light drivers side....

I assume you unhooked the battery before removing the relays, some of those are "Hot at all times"
Fuse 10 7.5amp and fuse 21 15amp power the turn signal flasher

Day light running(DRL) module, if so equipped, is part of the head light circuit.

The head light in low beam uses different fuses 38 and 42 10amp but in high they use the same fuse 33 15amp

I don't see any relays for the head lights but head lights and turn signals all run thru the Multi-function switch, the turn signal switch on the steering column.

Lights also run thru Alarm system, i.e. they flash when locking and unlocking doors, try unhooking battery for 20 minutes and see if system reboots correctly.

Why were you pulling out relays in the engine compartment power box?
