If it was me I would remove the changes made and see if it goes back to working condition. Then evaluate the wiring changes made and determine if you have a short circuit or other high current condition to cause the BCM to shutoff power. Hopefully nothing permanently damaged.

I installed the OEM LED third brake light. No resister was needed.

I installed led bulbs in my third brake light. No issues. You don't need a resistor for that. It's not a flashing light.
