Kennedy Posted July 4, 2009 Share Posted July 4, 2009 Shouldnt fail for not having ABS aslong as you can still pass the brake efficiency test.Although i could be wrong Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ToyotaTech15 Posted July 5, 2009 Share Posted July 5, 2009 It won't fail if they can't see the light, if you put the bulb in they will fail it as it affects the safety of the carGary Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sparky Posted July 5, 2009 Share Posted July 5, 2009 My ABS doesnt work can it just be removed like air con or is there something I need to do aswell like put nonABS hubs or anything on? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kennedy Posted July 5, 2009 Share Posted July 5, 2009 Surely it can't fail for the ABS not working..what about cars without ABS at all? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ALaN Posted July 5, 2009 Share Posted July 5, 2009 the car fails if it has abs and it doesnt work its like saying it shouldnt fail for having lights that dont work lolthey fail it if the abs light doent come on when the ignition is on and it has abs or if the light is on constant hence the reason mine is off the road as it failed for the bulb being out now I cant get it working Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kennedy Posted July 5, 2009 Share Posted July 5, 2009 ^^ yes but his brakes still work just his ABS doesnt.When is your MOT mate? i know an MOT tester so i will ask what the score is with it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
