Default "Rear light out" warning light... but no lights are out

Had a tail light burn out last week and I replaced it. The light now works again but I still get the warning light when I turn the headlamps on. Anyone else had this issue?

Default Might be a faulty board...I had one of the boards (forget which side) replaced because

it would tell me that a light was out when it wasn't.

Yes. There was some carbon build up in the socket. Cleaning it out corrected it.
