Not sure it is an MOT failure in the UK, Steve.
I think it's an advisory.
Red dashboard warning lights will cause an MOT failure, but not the Orange/yellow ones.
However, I'm open to someone with definite knowledge confirming.
I don't tolerate illuminated warning lights on my cars! They get proper maintenance, scheduled and preventative, or fixed promptly should anything fail.

My local MoT centre failed our Megane CC 1.9dci for the SERVICE warning and the report 'check injection' within the dash display, Shaun.

They're purely an MoT testing facility, just a hundred metres from our local VOSA depot...

Hi Steve,
my C6 passed my local (MOT) with the service light on! But the guy said it was a nice car. And said nothing about it. But i did flag it up at all times with everybody in the center before the test. I think he was particularly impressed with my lovely new wipers and new rear tyres. Installed fresh that morning!!

A car I know recently passed the MOT with an advisory note
"EML indicating a fault".
Jaguar, registration X586UOE.
Maybe it's discretionary and upto the MOT tester.

Any UK car's MOT history can be checked here;

The Advertising Standards Authority has ruled that garages must clearly state the legal implications of DPF-removal services for drivers after it banned a Bristol-based garage advert for misleading consumers.

Remapping !!!!!!!!!!!!!ETC
