Indicators and WOFS

[thornz]

Do all indicators need to be operating to get a WOF?
Have just noticed one of my indicators on the right hand side isnt working. Its the one on the side of teh car, not the front or rear bumper if it makes any difference?

[Dell'Orto]

Errr, yeah...its kind of a safety thing

nah, and only one of your brakes needs to be fully functional.......

if its there it has to work, incl auxillary lamps etc

[Dell'Orto]

Dont know if reverse lights do? Must check VIRM, have passed wofs with reverse lights out several times.

[thornz]

Thought as much. Just remember that one time when I went for WOF, one light was out and I was told it wasn't an issue because the other ones were working, cant remember which one it was though.

Yeah if it's there it has to work. Luke my high stop light. It wasn't working. Took it out. Passed a wof

same. mine have been out for the last 4-5 wof checks, 3 different places also.

[Mr Revhead]

yeah reverse lamps don't need to work for wof
which imo is dumb. how often when driving through a car park do you look at reverse lamps to check what they are up to?

theyre not on a wof checklist but i have repaired reverse lamps for a customer that failed a wof because the inspector called the aux lamps

supposed to be making it a point to fail a wof on soon tho, so im told.

[rollaholic]

the warrant guy at my work always fails them

i make him fix it

[MR2SIK]

my reverse lights have never orked :s never could find the problem so just stopped trying. They better not change the rules lol

[AE82 FXGT]

if one reverse light works, they both have to work, but if they both don't go that's ok.

All other lights (indicators, park, daytime running etc) have to go if they are there.

Yeah, gay rule.

Is one bulb is out you fail, If both bulbs are out you pass,

[Mr. Mainstream]

no shit . you don't legally need reverse lights.
