Weird mot advisory

[DomP182]

I've got an advisory (or rather 6) that makes no sense to me. Here it is, can anyone enlighten me?

what one?

 

[barnesautos]

Headlamps need a 3M correction kit clean
The rear lamp is affected by another lamp that comes on at the same time , poss stop lamp brings on another .
And some corrosion on a brake pipe and both front springs. .

Nothing weird there at all .

Dont take it back to them.

 

[DomP182]

It was no.1, so what would be causing that?

the terminals need nipping up a bit on the plug. mainly the black one.

Bad earth for first one?
Headlights need a wet sand and polish.

3M kit ordered, new H&R springs coming next week. I take it the bad connection is likely to be at the lamp end. Clean up of contacts and a spray of ACF50

Decent enough advisories tbh

 

[TimR26]

They seem quite self explanatory to me. Why didn't you ask about them to the MOT tester?

 

[McGherkin]

Yep, will be the infamous corroded terminals in the plug for that tail light.

Pull it out, clean up the terminals, job jobbed.

 

[DomP182]

Didn't ask because I got stuck in traffic after work and got there at closing time so paid and legged it

It was obviously only #1 that I was confused by

First one is very common

When you brake does the fog light sign flicker on the dash inbetween the rev counter and speedo? As mentioned above just whip the rear lights off and clean up the terminals with a bit of sand paper.

I moved my bulbs around and it fixed it

 

[DomP182]

Tested them and nothing lights up incorrectly, took both light clusters out and due to my often anal cleaning you could have eaten your dinner off the insides so I'm at a loss as to what was the problem

When you brake does the fog symbol slightly illuminate on the dash?

 

[DomP182]

Nope

Seems overly picky but it's tester's discretion. 3M correction kit would solve 2-3 of those.
