I pulled one connection to the light and tested continuity to the connected lead and to the disconnected lead. I didn't get a signal on the disconnected lead coming (I think) from the tach. Normally I would not expect to, but I thought with the resistor in parallel to the light, that I would still get connectivity to the disconnected lead from across the resistor. I've used a multi-meter to check ballast resistors in the past to see if they are intact and not burned through.

I guess I need to check continuity across that 5W resistor and make sure it is functional.
