Check the bulb failure sensor, it's a red can in the relay panel. Solder
joints occasionally crack on the circuit board.

In mine the relays are in the fuse panel behind the ash tray. '91 may be
different though, the owner's manual of the car should show you where
that stuff is.

There's lots of places to post a picture and then post a link to the
page. If it's under 2MB you could email it to me and I can host it.
