Hi,
My ABS light (when you turn the ignition on) goes on, blinks off once then stays on until you move the car. If you do not move it will not go off.

the light illuminates when the starter switch is turned on as a bulb check
and extinguishes once the vechile has reached 5 mph.
if the light illuninates whilst driving, there is a fault with the system
so reads the same as yours so i think i might have to take the book with me and prove him wrong so i expext after proving him wrong he will fail it on somthing else :doh:
cheers for the offer of the pdf though i nearly took you up on it as i couldnt find mine

You might also want to refer him to the testers manual ~ http://www.motuk.co.uk/manual_340.htm

I has this same problem a coupe of years ago. as yours my ABS light goes out after reaching 5 MPH, fortunately i had my manual with me during the MOT and after pointing it out to the tester he passed the MOT, the following year i had no problem at the same station.
As far as i remember from the MOT site, as per the links here, the ABS test is subject to the manufacturer?
good luck putting them right, enjoy the moment.
