Pre-MOT Inspection Checklist for Ci Motorhome Motorhome Owners
These checks follow this Ci Motorhome motorhome's own most-recorded failure strings, starting with what a tester is most likely to flag on a Ci Motorhome motorhome.
-
the lights — “registration plate lamp(s) inoperative in the case of multiple lamps or light sources”
Switch everything on and walk round the car: both headlamps on dip and main, every indicator, both brake lights, reverse, fog and the two number-plate lamps. A bulb is a few pounds and a five-minute job.
-
the wipers and washers — “wipers does not clear the windscreen effectively”
Run the wipers with the screen wet: they should clear it in one sweep without smearing or juddering. Top the washer bottle up and check both jets hit the screen.
-
the windscreen — “windscreen damaged”
Check the driver’s side of the screen within the swept area for chips and cracks; anything larger than 10mm in the driver’s central view is a fail. Most chips can be resin-repaired for far less than a new screen.
Derived from the DVSA failure strings testers recorded for the Ci Motorhome motorhome. A check that finds nothing means the item is likely fine, not that the test is guaranteed.
