Unhappy Need help with wiring?

have a 2002 ss spoiler on my 94 z28 and it won't turn on when the brakes are applied and the abs light comes on the dash. i need a resistor of some sort or another idea so that i have the right current going to the led lights so the computer will let it light up. factory wires coming from the car are setup just for the stock one bulb setup.

Normally the problem is that the spoiler light works, but it causes the ABS lamp to come on. You might try reversing the leads to the spoiler because the LEDs are polarity sensitive.

The fix for the ABS light is to use a common automotive relay and bridge terminal 85 to one wire and 86 to the other wire going to the spoiler.

Did you test to make sure that the spoiler LEDs came on before installing it? Did you check for power on the wires to the spoiler?
