I was getting bulb out indicator on the dash, and only after doing all the head scratching, and pulling connectors in pairs, cleaning up the fuses, AND replacing the bulb out module with a spare I had kicking around... clued in here and LICENSE plate lights DING! Replaced it and problem went away.

Until today. Now, I'm getting same symptom as original poster. As soon as the car is started (light switch position = OFF, car parked) I get the indicator bulb on the dash. No lights are supposed to be on, how is this possible?

First thing that comes to mind is put the original bulb indicator module back in and see if it goes away. I'll do that tonight.
