Hi,

Does anyone know what warning lghts are required for an MOT? I have a Kosos dash which doesnt have a fog light warning or brake light do i need these?

Cheers

Paul

Need both of those - fog light telltale which comes on when fog light is on, and brake warning light which shows when the float switch is triggered by no brake fluid. The brake light must have a test facility, which is usually done by the handbrake.

Sorry but you are wrong, yes you need a rear fog tell tale but you do not need a brake warning light for MOT . You do need indicator and hazard warning lights though.. Brake warning is needed for SVA.

Yep, Rusty's right

If memory serves me correctly, you do infact need a handbrake warning light for MOT, but often this is overlooked (to me it makes sense also). You need a brake fluid level warning light which is usually connected to the handbrake warning light for SVA.
