yes and no. This Bulb failure indicator Light will light up if the currents between Drivers side bulb and passenger side bulb is not equal. Usually that will happen when a bulb is burned out. IF the connection is ran a bulb, it may still light but will draw more current so you get a false Dashboard indicator.

The rear tail lights are usually your suspect.. Pull the bulbs and lightly sand the brass for a better ground connection. I have had much better luck buying teh bulbs with the Silver colored housings.
