    Either get the fault fixed or take the dash apart and take the bulbs out.

    Car will still fail if ABS light does not come on at all.

    I thought the "bulbs" were actually LEDs soldered to the PCB.

    And as has been said, the ABS light needs to work for the MOT.

    Yep the entire dash panel is made with LEDS, no chance of disconnecting the correct one without causing even more issues.

    Try a reset first with Tech 2 or Op-Com, may just be a temporary fault...otherwise fixing the fault is the only option.

    Have you tried disconnecting the battery overnight. - free to do, and sometimes works.

    if it wont pass an mot it wont pass a roadside check and will be issued with a PG9 prohibition notice hence dont use
    plus will class as driving a vehicle with defective brakes and will result in an endorsement on the drivers license
