As expected, my VX passed the state inspection today with no problem. Air quality is good in my area so there is no exhaust testing, just a quick visual inspection of emission controls.
Afterwards I asked the inspection dude about ABS and he confirmed it doesn't have to be working as long as the brakes work fine without it. I could be wrong, but I don't believe an OBD scan would find any ABS codes anyway, or airbag and TOD codes. They're not related to the CEL and can't be read with a simple OBDII scanner.
