Well, here's a lesson: never try to figure out what bulb might be bad in broad daylight! Checked everything out three times and all seemed okay, until I took a better look at dusk. Turns out the passenger-side rear marker light was bad; I didn't even see the bulb the way its tucked into the side of the light housing. Replaced bulb... light works, no warning light on dash!

Also, I discovered that the Left or Right Parking Light feature only works with the engine not running. When checking into the 'bulb out' problem, I had the engine running due to having all the lights turned on and didn't want any battery drain. Ignition cannot be in the 'on' position for the left or Right Parking Light feature.

Thanks to all...
