Dang it! Hit the enter button way too fast.

Pulled both brake light holders out and measured resistance. Passenger side one was way off, but still worked. Replaced it with a spare one I had laying around.

Now light off, but comes on when I hit the brakes. I pull the bulbs once more and check again.

Now drivers side is off from passenger side. Before I headed out to the local autozone, I checked the glove box. Surprise, Surprise, Surprise. There sat a spare one. I measured it and it was very close to the passenger side bulb that I just installed.

I put it in, and now the light is off, and the problem is solved. Moving on to the next Gremlin.

Later,

Matt
