My ST failed through having a faulty rear brake light switch (OK, fair cop, it had seized 'cos I never use the back brake).

But... it also failed through having a loose petrol tank The assessor wouldn't listen, wouldn't take the tank pad off and look for himself, I had to take the tank pad off when I took it back in to show him that the rear of the tank has a pin hinge and the front is held down by a rubber strap
