If it stays on then I'd advise too. Only time I've seen this happen is on the clio's and older scenic's when they have an earthing fault at the rear lights.

Totally agree
I wouldent fail for faulty switch as there's no evidence there to suggest the switch is faulty,you'd have to try and diagnose a faulty switch if its not obvious ,as we know the mot is not a diagnostic test.
The method of inspection is not asking to check the operation of the switch,it asks us if it can be operated from the drivers position,

I might not be the best,but i was always in the top one
