Good plan, there's probably a short somewhere in either the brake light circuit or the indicator circuit.

What bike does you have and have there been any mods to the lighting?

Start at the brake bulbs. Dual filament bulbs can cross circuits and still work. Also, pay close attention to the sockets and contacts on the bulb.

So what did you find to be the problem?

It's courteous to post the solution when others have spent the effort to help you.

The problem was a trapped wire under the seat . Tracked it down cleaned up the wire , soldered and heat shrink .
Just one of those thing with older bike , you get left with the past owners handy work👍
