There's a sticky at the top of the board that tells you all you need to know.  I followed the instructions and it's very easy to read and clear the faults.

Most faults, when cleared, should allow the light ot go out but the fault code stays logged in the ECU.  If the light is still on the fault is probably still there.

Unless your really unlucky!  Mine recently failed on ABS light doesnt illuminate.  I believe that if fitted with ABS it has to come on and go off as it should!

yes it is right,if you take the bulb out,it will fail the mot,it has to illuminate then go out as usual to pass,but,if you're realy sneaky,you can take the dash pod out,wire the abs light up to a timed relay,so when you turn the ignition on,the light comes on,then goes out like you would think it should, :dance:
