Unhappy tail warning light on the dash

I have a 1998 es300 and I am having problem with tail warning light on my dash.
The yellow warning light came on today and checked tail light. The right rear parking light wasn't working, so I replaced it but still the warning light is on. I checked all the lights and they are all working fine. Can anyone help me with this warning light off from my dash board??

I had an issue where everything was working but I still had a warning light. It turned out that some bulbs were just old and not bright enough. Try switching all your brake lights with new ones. Also try to see if there is a certain condition when you get the warning. Is it always on, or only when you turn your lights on? Or does it only appear when you use the brakes?
