What else is on that darn test circuit?
Very coincidental that you should post this question today. I was having the same problem and could not find the culprit bulb(s). So, I ordered quantities of every bulb that the car uses. They were just delivered yesterday and I was going to change them all today. However, before swapping all of the bulbs, I found that the bad bulb was in the 3rd brake lamp.

When I started the car the dummy light on the dash wasn't illuminated. Then I turned on the headlamps and it still didn't illuminate. Finally, I depressed the brake pedal and the dummy light illuminated. I got a helper to depress the brake pedal while I checked the rear lamps. I found the bulb in the 3rd brake lamp was toast. I changed it and the dummy light is finally off.

Am I talking too much?
