Official USCG Answer & Rule Citation
Correct Answer: Option A — stern light "2" burns out
Navigation light monitoring panels utilize current-sensing relays in series with running lights. If stern light #2 burns out, current ceases through the sensing coil, causing identical alarm and indicator light transitions as a blown circuit fuse within the monitored circuit.
