Default All front parking/running lights please help I suck at wiring!!!

I used the power wire on each front corner light when I switched to depo headlights to give power to the bumper lights, city lights I installed in the highbeams, and intersection lights so they would all be on constant and blink. Everything was working fine until I used the same power wire to power newly installed sidemarkers. It worked for an hour or so. Then I came out of home depot and the headlights were completely turned off but all the parking lights were still on. Then got home and they were all off. Now city lights and sidemarkers will not turn on or blink and the intersection lights and front bumper lights will only blink.

All the fuses and lighting relays are good and so are the bulbs.

Does anyone have any Ideas?

how did you install or what did you do to get city lights since depos have no slot or plug for city lights

if you straight up hooked up the wire to the high bulb than that probrably your problem since it would be sucking out the 65w's for the high plus the 5w's for the bumper lights

if you wired it that way than you were running about 70w's through a wire that was only ment to have about 5w's ran through it

Drilled a hole in the high beam part of the headlight and installed a little t10 bulb. Then main power supply wire I used was from the original second bulb in the corner light from the oe headlights.

All the fuses in the car are good, but there isn't power to that power wire. Other running light in corner light works but it has its own power wire and all of them in the rear work.
could it be something in the lighting relay?
