I did, yes. The first thing I did was replace both bulbs as both were at least a couple years old already.

Looking at the schematic for the lights, the only other possibility I can think of is the relay (CMI6 or CMI7). According to the schematic, lines come out of the shunt to both the CMI6 and CMI7 relays, but I'm also thinking that if the relays are bad that the lights wouldn't work at all. Does my logic make sense?

Thanks!
