Para "two wrongs make a right", me gusta en lenguaje falsamente matemático: "menos con menos da más".
Para "two wrongs don't make a right", he oído "dos equivocaciones no hacen un acierto".

Según el diccionario Oxford, "con un error no se subsana otro". Pero para mí eso no capta el sentido moral del modismo inglés. ¿Qué os parece "pagar injusticia por injusticia no es justicia"?

I have another idea.
I guess that this could be of the following way. Dos errores una buena acción. To listen commentaries.

i have heard "un error no arregla otro", but as pjt33 states, is similar but not exactly the same.
