WINDSCREEN DAMAGE

Windscreen Damage MOT

WHAT DAMAGE WOULD FAIL THE MOT?  MOT TEST info

 Zone A- Damage larger than 10mm could fail

 Zones B & C- Damage larger than 40mm could fail

 The MOT testers manual says “any damage not contained within a circle of 10mm” so a cluster of minor damage could also fail

 

REPAIRING WINDSCREENS

British Standard BSAU242a 1998 which states that:

Zone A- Any damage smaller than 10mm can be repaired

Zone B- Any damage smaller than 15mm can be repaired

Zone C- Any damage smaller than 25mm can be repaired

Zone D- Any damage smaller than 40mm can be repaired

If the damage is larger than that stated for the zone, the windscreen will have to be replaced.
