Narrative:

Event occurred at dfw airport, landed on runway 17C out of an ILS, turned off runway, on taxiway M3 and was instructed by tower to turn right onto taxiway el and hold short of runway 17R, which I did. At that point, I was told to cross runway 17R and contact ground control, which I did. We were then told to turn left onto taxiway left and hold short of taxiway B. At that point, I turned left too far and ended up on taxiway L4 and was told by ground control that we were about to enter runway 17R and to stop, which I did. We were then told to turn left 45 degrees and proceed to the next intersection, which I did. We were then told to stop again, that we were still on taxiway L4. We were then told to proceed to taxiway L5 and re-enter taxiway left at L5 and turn left on taxiway left to hold short of taxiway B, which I did. We were then told to turn right onto taxiway B and cross the bridge, contact ground on 121.85, and taxi to GA terminal at taxiway ha, which I did. Due to the rain on the windshield, I inadvertently taxied onto taxiway L4 instead of taxiway left. Please note on the attached airport taxi chart, that the area marked in red ink was the route I followed.
