Fused Brake Light Indicator on dash won't go away

So the other day I got into my 98 Camry and the fused tail light indicator light came on, so I go look there's one tail light out, changed it. light STILL stayed on....all lights still working but the warning light still comes on. So..assuming that one of the other two bulbs are just getting old and not giving off enough resistance I replaced them with new bulbs. STILL giving the warning light. Took all three out, cleaned the terminals with condensed air installed bulbs again..and light is still on.

Anyone else have this issue??

I believe you must use bulbs that are the same resistance as originals, other wise total resistance doesnt add up,saw this once in a cressedia

Hmm any idea what the OEM bulbs were? If I remember right they were Slyvania which is one i'm using now. but maybe the new slyvania's have different resistance then the older bulbs? That's all I've been using in the car since I bought it new 14 years ago lol
