mealexme Posted January 26, 2016 Posted January 26, 2016 So, its mot time (woo) and there are a couple of things I'm unsure about to whether it will pass.One of which is the cap which covers the rear of the headlight housing to access the bulb is missing. Is this an MOT fail, because there is potential for water to get into the headlight unit, but I've been riding with it off, through the rain since last summer, I keep meaning to replace it, but no water has got in there so far. If it is an MOT fail, will a bit of masking tape over the gap be sufficient just to get through the MOT? Quote
Arwen Posted January 26, 2016 Posted January 26, 2016 I'd say you will be fine. Mine is completely open at the back by design. You can check here though - http://www.ukmot.com/bike-1-1.asp#Text_top Quote
fq-craigus Posted January 26, 2016 Posted January 26, 2016 It wont fail but if your headlight is misted because of it you may get an advisory. Either way best to get that sorted before the light fails due to ingress Quote
