Getting my MINI back from my uncle as he's moving abroad but its MOT runs out tomorrow. The airbag light is on and needs reset, Will it fail because of this.

The car is in Newcastle so will need MOT'd before i bring it back so ideally need it to pass down there.

Anyone in the know?

No, Me and ny girlfriend sold our cars to her uncle who is a trader, He kept mine as his own car and is moving abroad so he asked Danielle to ask if i wanted it back cheap, Which i jumped at as i miss it like fuck.

Surely if her pad lights were on it meant they were low, thus failing the MOT?

We dont fail it for having various lights on, unless there onvious fails like Brake Pad Warning.

can only fail a pad being low if it has less than 1.5mm on it ... which on an mot is prettymuch inposible to check unless its down to the metal so will just get an advise normally
