Default mot issue

Car passed its test today, the tester said it should have failed on its side lights as they are inoperative on the first turn of the stalk. Weirdly they do work with the second turn along with the dipped beam.

Any ideas?

Strange, could be a wiring issue in the stalk I guess. Try your parking light switch and see if that works
