on our A2 the front headlight units mist up
Also, have a cracked rear cluster
will these cause a failure on MOT?

MOT issue's relating to Front & Rear lights
- Thread starter davidkoulakis
- Start date
I think the rear cluster will be fine as long as there is no white light visible (so long as it`s not the reversing section that`s cracked obviously....).
I can`t see misting in the front light being a problem either as long as it`s not excessive. Does the misting clear if the lights are on for a while? If so I`d be driving to the test centre with them on to get them clear........

As Deerfoot said as long as the fronts are not badly misted then you will be OK. Just to make sure, pull the headlights out (2min job) and stick on a radiator or if you don't want to take them out just undo the access panel at the back of each light and put a hairdryer on them, they will soon clear. Also check the access panels are fitted correctly, on vespa I had misting on one side and found that the panel had not been put back correctly when a bulb was changed.

Remove headlights night before and put in airing cupboard,thats that sorted.
Cracked light,may say its defusing the light,put some clear selotape over it.
