Handbrake Warning light
Is this needed for the sva test, I have a dash light working if my brake fuild is low, but do I need one to say the handbrake is on.
ps got my SVA date 9th May, so I have a little time to complete the car.

UNDERSTEER is when you hit the wall with the front of the car.
OVERSTEER is when you hit the wall with the rear of the car.
HORSEPOWER is how fast you hit the wall.
TORQUE is how far you take the wall with you.

No, but you must be able to test the operation of the fluid light from the driving position. Wiring the handbrake light to the same bulb achieves
this. Otherwise you need a test button.

Yes you do (kind of!). You need some form of means of operating the brake fluid warning light from within the cockpit (to show that it works ok) and
so if you combine the handbrake and brake fluid warning function in one dashlight, operating the handbrake enables you to do this.
This is achieved by wiring the handbrake switch in parallel with the brake fluid switch.

Oh yea 7th of may (not 9th typo by me), sva has been extended, the guy I contacted about the date at the sva center told me the government legislation
hadn't been passed yet, so at present he can offer dates up to end of May.
