Default Help with DRL harness

So I just installed brand new AlphaRex nova on my 2019 f150 xlt. Installing was simple enough however when it came time for the harness I couldn’t find any thorough information. I used a fuse tap and plug into #36 and used former fuse in the tap.
everything was working well until I went to check on the lights at night time and my FordPass blew up with notifications of various electrical concerns and the check engine light was illuminated. Concerns being turbro control system, electrical short for cabin heater violent pump and so on and so on. 9 Alerts in total. I can’t find any information on this ever happening.
I don’t know what I could have done or if it was just a fluke and will go away but I am at a loss.

I’ve disconnected the harness and was done for the night but please any information on what I did wrong and how to fix would be amazing. Thank you!

Sometimes when you disconnect the battery then reconnect it you can get odd DTCs as some modules boot up and others don't. I would take careful note of each DTC, then clear all the codes and see if any of them return.
