MOT Test and how to pass it:
You need to check the following parts of your car and make sure there is no damage or fault:
Windscreen wipers: - Check there are no cracks/chips or damage.
Indicators and headlights:- Make sure your headlights, rear lights, hazard lights, side lights and indicators are all working.
Fuel and Engine oil:- You must have enough fuel and oil before your test. The mechanics need fuel and oil so they can test the emissions on the car.
Seat belts and Seats:- You can test the seat belts by tugging on all of them to make sure they are working properly.
Screen wash:- If your screen wash is empty- you will fail your MOT
Brake Lights:- You will need to get someone to stand behind your car to check that your brake lights are working before you take your car in for it's MOT.
Windscreen wipers:- Any damage to your windscreen wipers can result in an MOT test fail. Make sure they are clean and damage free.
Number plate:- Your number plates must be clear and visible. If you have a personalised number plate make sure it meets the legal requirements.
Horn: You will need to get your horn fixed if it isn't working properly as this can result in a MOT test fail.
Tyres and Wheels:- The legal minimum tread depth for your tyres is 1.6mm, if they are less than that then you will fail your MOT test.
