Ok so followed everything. Everything works good except…… the ditch lights. They are lit up but when the horn blows, instead of alternating flashing the front and rear alternate. I put the yellow and white on the same out put. As I’m thinking, what it think I need to do is put the yellow together on one out put and the white on another. Or maybe not, any help would be great, thanks!

You will probably need to tell us exactly what you have hooked up to what wire so we know what you've done but this is what basically what you'd need to do. The colours are arbitrary.
White: Front Left Ditchlight
Yellow: Front Right Ditchlight
Green: Front headlight
Violet: Rear headlight
On the HC you'd set the ditch lights up using the On/Off 1 second dual lighting effect effect, selecting the appropriate wires, white and yellow in this example (you could set them up with a button for each light using the On/Off 1 second lighting effect but there's probably no real point to that) and the ditch function button using the Ditch Finish On effect. Make sure you use the correct button icons.
You've already got the flash ditchlight on horn function worked out.

I recall someone breadboarding an LM test setup, to figure out the lights and wiring prior to installation. Almost a necessity with today's 21-pin outputs. Anyone else remember this?

That was probably me from five and a half years ago. Good memory if that's the case. https://rpug.pdc.ca/index.php/topic,549.0.html. Still have and use that board.
