Mine used to do that too from the day I bought it. Then one day one of my running light bulbs was out. So I replaced all the rear lights, including turn signals just because I was back there and bulbs are cheap.

Amazingly, the dash no longer thinks my tail lights are burnt out. Maybe its just corrosion on some sensor wire in the tail light housing, and taking out and putting back in a bulb cleaned it up enough to realize there is voltage there....
