Default m.o.t failure??

my car mot is due on friday so i have it booked in on wednesday morning...only i have a slight issue with my rear fog light...and v6 spoiler brake light.
my rear fog light next to my number plate doesnt seem to work...iv changed bulb and nothing,but when i press the fog light button inside my rear lights come on and my sidelights,but no rear fog light so im slightly confused and know nothing about electrics,will it fail because of it?
also few led's are out on the spoiler brake light....so i will need to get a new 1will this also determine a failure??
help would be really appreciated.
cheers

I doubt you'll fail on a few of the brake LEDs being out, but the fog needs to work.

Sounds like the rear fog may be incorrectly wired? - Has it ever worked properly?

wel i seem to recall it working at one point yes...but i cant be too sure...its definately some wiring fault tho im just unsure on what to do or where to look because i dont even know where it will have been fused to because with it being an import the fog will have been fitted aftermarket so to speak

sounds like your pushing the button for ur front fog lights and not the rear.

you should have another non standard switch somewhere for ur rear light
