    I need some help we installed an aftermarket spoiler for my customer and now we lost the cruise control function. If I plug in the factory 3RD brake light the cruise works again. The new 3RD brake light draws a small amount of more amperage. Can anyone help with this fix, I would like my customer to keep this spoiler on the car it looks sweet.

    I dont want to hide the factory spoiler hooked up to make the cruise work and then set up a logic box off of the tail light circuit to make the new 3RD brake light work.

    I would like a cleaner more professional fix.


    Please help.

    TheFactory 3rd brake light was drawing 0.16A and the New one is drawing 0.24A. The Factory 3RD brake light is reading 10.6 M ohms avg. I need help to figure out a fix for this. I didn't think the factory system would be that sensitive .

    tap into the cars tail lights for the spoilers 3 rd brake light, leave the factory 3 rd brake light alone.
