Chaos Esper Help!

Ok so i just talked the elder at Dalan's and i am in the midst of finding the 3 pieces, at the Garamsythe Waterway i did what the guide told me on "ff12maps" and still no key when it says to activate the 4th panel does that mean open the gate or close it? And what does deactivate mean? Can someone please tell me the steps in something i will understand..

ok I´ll try to explain
You have to clear Wraith, White Mousse and Orthros hunting mission
Then you´ll have the Sluice Gate Key, which you get from the reward of White Mousse hunting mission, and you´ll be able to control the panel
Go to the central control section and light off all panels.....
Then you have to:
light on No. 11 Area Panel,
light on No. 4 Area Panel,
light off No. 11 Area Panel,
light on No. 3 Area Panel,
light off No. 4 Area Panel
Now you have to go around South in this same area and you´ll find the shiny object on the ground, which is the Dull Fragment

Hope this helps you

After completing the Wraith mark hunt, if you go into the residence
in Lowtown you can find the key item [DUSTY LETTER] on the table
near the Seeq. Reading it, you can find the clue:

East -> Southeast -> East -> Southwest -> Southeast

Now, this may seem like directions for navigating the Garamsythe
waterway (as the letter talks about in detail, but not in the key
item description), but in reality, it's the method for operating
the switches in the "Central Waterway Control" area. Go down there
and face south, so the switches look like (from north facing):


So, with all the switches starting in the "off" position (not lit
up), flip the switches. If you don't like directions, do it by the
name of the switch:

1) Close No. 11 Control | Once this simple task is completed,
2) Close No. 04 Control | you should hear a "tinkle" noise, but
3) Open No. 11 Control | will receive NO notification that
4) Close No. 03 Control | anything has happened. Head to the
5) Open No. 04 Control | south of the area near the entrance
--------------------------' to the No. 1 Cloaca and you will find
a "Shiny Object" on the ground. Claim it for your own to see it is
a [DULL FRAGMENT] key item.

So turn everything off then start at step 3.

Ok i got that part done, and thanks, so which lights have to be on in order for me to reach "curious woman" to talk to so i can get the 2nd fragment...

Thats a different quest part.

Speak to Roh'kenmou (the Nu Mou in Old Dalan's house), and find Filo in the south-east portion of Rabanastre
Lowtown, South Sprawl. Find the Curious Woman by the fountain in Rabanastre,
Southern Plaza. Speak to a "Merchant" in Muthru Bazaar, then find the Sotted
Imperial inside Yugri's Magicks, East End. He demands you to speak to the
Curious Woman but she is no longer by the fountain, so find Kytes in northern
Lowtown, North Sprawl. Return to Filo in south-east Lowtown, South Sprawl to
find the Curious Woman. Return to the Sotted Imperial in Yugri's Magicks to
obtain the Grimy Fragment. Hand the Grimy Fragment to Roh'kenmou.
