Here's my answer from way back in 2002 (as BobR):
"Same thing was happening to me (also a '95) last year - it's not just the pictogram, you're really losing your brake lights occasionally.
The crappy Hella taillight assembly is to blame - the metal sockets the bulbs bayonet into eventually break loose from the flimsy plastic holding
them in place, allowing the bulbs to lose contact intermittently.
I fixed mine permanently by drilling a hole in the plastic base on both sides of the loose socket, and inserting a short U-shaped length of 24 ga.
wire from the back side and soldering it to both sides of the socket."
