Default Foglight w/parking light help............

So I did this: https://honda-tech.com/zerothread/1991524
and this is what happened:

"I just did this to my car, and everything works great, but... the first time I tried to arm my alarm with the foglight switch set to "ON" the alarm arms, but no flashing parking lights/foglights or tail lights. It also looks like my interior lights are gone too

But the parking lights, foglights, and taillights all turn on when I turn my parking lights and headlights on?

Things I've tried:

I changed the TAILLIGHT fuse to 10amp from the start =
I changed the INSTRUMENT LIGHT/CLUSTER fuse to 10amp =
I switched the foglight switch off and arming the alarm, that didn't help too.

I' am stumped, anymore suggestions? Anyone else with the same problem, I've already looked through this thread:
https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=707193 and tried everything suggested there."

Just I thought I've post it here for more views.

Thanks in advance.

He didn't ask for another link to the DIY thread...

He asked for pics of your install...

I did the install 100% spot on, according to that thread, that's why I posted that link.

Also I noticed my instrument cluster/interior lights do all work when my lights are on, so the only problem is that the parking lights, tail lights and foglights don't flash when I arm and disarm my alarm.

Okay, you did something OTHER than the DIY, so don't claim it's "spot on".

My best guess is that the combined load of the other lighting circuits is too much for the alarm output. So what you will need to do is use a relay.

85 to alarm's white positive parking light output.
86 to ground
87 to all your lighting outputs
30 to fused constant 12v
