mine does the same....the symbol is only faint though. my mate said theres a bad earth somewhere. i dont let it bother me....only notice it when its dark & thats only if you look at the dash
 
was thinking maybe a earth issue. none of the lights come on outside tho? might pull the apart this weekend and re connect them all up...cheers mate

Rear lights 100% Take off the loom connectors, flick out the prongs which connect to the clusters (you'll see what i mean)

Then on the lights, clean up the metal contacts with some sandpaper.

You'll also notice if you have your rear side lights on with the indicators, the lights will dim to the indicator flash ;)

Funny you posted this. I was out doing mine today. I've noticed it most when its wet outside, and my rear lights get moisture inside them.
Today was a lovely and sunny day so i took my rear lights off band removed the bulb holders, made sure everything was dry and the contacts were clean.
Got in and tested, it didn't happen when I tested it. We'll see if it holds up.
