Light still doesn’t work . . .Nor would I expect it to. Of the two wires between the three way switches, only one at a time will be hot while the other would be not connected electrically, thus a light connected between them would never turn on. A light wired into one of those lines would turn on, but you wouldn't wire the system up that way.The switches used are Single Pole Double Throw (SPDT), where one line is switched between two contacts, with the two wires hooked onto those contacts. You can view the switch schematic . The circuit can be seen , you can verify your result, or look on the off chance you still can't figure it out.Now adding one or more four way switches, that's a fun exercise
