4th Gen Cluster HELP!!!

Ok i was able to get this 99 camaro cluster hooked up. Its working good. everything seems to be ready good. The only issue is that the Brake light, ABS INOP, Service Vehicle lights are coming on. Im not using the 99 BCM. Just wanted to know if there was a way around this. I would really like to get my brake light to work.

Brake Light
ABS INOP
Service Vehicle (Not Service Engine light)

Since I am pretty sure the 99 uses the serial data line for the gauges, you may have to do like I did for those bulbs. I took the circuit board off the gauges and pulled the small led bulbs for those circuits. You will never need them and they do not interfere with anything when you pull them. But, just to make sure, I heated the solder and after the bulbs were out, I added some more to bridge the connection.
