Default MOT Dashboard warning lights

Harry Bloomfield verbally sodomised in
:

McKev expressed precisely :
My car failed it's MOT. The tester said the car was in excellent
condition and that whilst the brakes passed the test, and the ABS was
fully working, the ABS light on the dashboard remained lit. I then of
course paid him to track the cause of the light, which was fixed
after a big wadge changed hands.

The car passed last year with the same problem - which I'd asked about
before it took the test and was told the car wouldn't fail because of
the light, it would only fail if the brakes didn't pass.

The views on this seem contradictory - does anyone know the legal
answer?
Thanks in advance.




Id have removed the light.


..and it would have (or should have) failed on a none working ABS
warning light.

The tester is supposed to confirm that the light comes on, then goes
off after a few seconds - thus confirming that the ABS diagnostics give
an all clear.


I'd have removed the light.
