Duh...
Okay, the complex problem was a simple one and I can't believe I didn't figure it out on my own. I had replaced those two bulbs - incorrectly. I'd put a single filament (Kragen goofed) in the brake light socket, so I replaced that and it's good to go. The bulb for the front is a 3-connector bulb and (Kragen again) got the 2-connector. I happened to find the old bulb and discovered that the lead on the bottom had flattened out and shorted. So temporarily I cut away the overlap and now it works, too.
Who could believe a simple thing like this could cause all those problems. Thanks a million!!
Bill
