- Lights - low and high

- brakes

- horn
- wiper operation and blade condition
- at least one rearview mirror (either center or drivers side)
- tire tread depth as allowed by law
- license plate illumination light
- reverse lights

if any fail, you can have it REMEDIED ON THE SPOT (buy the blown bulb, etc, from them) and not fail, OR you can take the inspection, and return within 10 days to have it RETESTED on THAT ITEM for free, and still pass. Ask for a form/sheet from them to prove to them that this is what you are doing, and not just "leaving" after a failure.
Cost is 12.50
If you have it done in a metro area (that does smog) then the added requirements will be:
cost is 39.50 total
- visual test of CEL light: on at KOEO, and OFF at KOER, scanner to make sure P1000 isn't present
- smog sniffer at the tailpipe (some places skip this if the visual test passes)
If either fails, you fail and lose the 39.50
