just a quick question does anyone know if when i take my car for its mot does it matter if my brake warning light and handbrake light stay on even though there is no fault with the brakes? normally i would just take it in and see if it failed but since you cant get free retests anymore i cant afford to take the chance at the moment?

as long as it has nothing to do with the ABS it's fine i'e S2 turbo's
would fail as that is ment to go out when the handbrake is released

mines a j plate xr2i, which believe it or not i cant remember if it has abs, i dont think it does, shows u how long its been since i have driven the thing!!

think it will fail my old corsa did same problem...it was a faulty handbrake sensor!

ive just ordered a new switch from the main dealer, it only cost me a tenner, would have cost me more than that to get to the scrap yard so thought i may as well have a new one!

guess who forgot to check the brake fluid first! so atleast i learnt a lesson today!! always check the brake fluid!

the worst thing was i cut my hand to shreds trying to refit the switch, kept catching myself on the handbrake while trying to screw the switch in!!
