I've just acquired a Proton Persona LXI 1996 vintage in decent nick, 89K on the clock. The only problem I can find is that the SRS warning light comes on every few seconds. Anyone have any idea as to where I should start looking for a fault? If I can't find the fault is it likely to result in a MOT failure? Regards, Iain

No its not an MOT failure. Areas to look at first IME (not with this car) are seatbelt pretensioner connectors.

Thanks for that.

I think it actually is an MOT failure (assuming the light comes on during the test) as it means somepart of the airbag or seatbelty type bits is broken.
I don't think it is - my airbag warning light has been on for at least the past two tests.
It is not part of the test - seatbelts are the only item tested - airbags are supplemental and optional and therefore not required to be functional.

Your logic is confusing. It is not a part of the MOT test because it is not a testable item. The fact that it indicates that some untested item is broken is irrelevant.
