probally been asked before but does a bec need a reverse to pass mot?

I know that when i used to be on here alot they didnt, just wondering if things had changed??

Just something someone said to me made me wonder. If not why? Any links to an offical answer would be great ty

No, simply because the MoT is a test for safety & reverse gear (& reverse lights come to that) are not a part of the MoT test.

No

Not true AFAIK, they are not a testable item whether fitted or not.

dont think ive had a car yet with reverse lights never even seen them checked

Reverse lights are NOT a testable item. Trust me, would I lie to you???

for the sva not MOT

if you have a reverse light it must have a reverse system

done 8 SVA's in the last two months

My Station reckon if theres a light there there should be a reverse

so maybe its a case of different examiner different rules I am ofcourse going of my quite good experience

thats crap!!!!

I don't have the reverse but only the light.

Mhh thinnk i will source a 2nd left light cluster then.

if you have 2 fogs, do they also light up then??



Tks
