Default Cluster Bulb removal

does anyone know if the following bulbs can be removed from cluster:

anti skid warning lamp
central amber warning triangle
left and text display

was thinking of taking them out for MOT seeing as my steering angle sensor is showing a fault
unfortunately I don't have the time/money to fix in the next couple of weeks and my MOT is due

many thanks

Hi, I know they are very annoying but they are there for a very good reason and indicate a safety issue.

I understand the financial situation, but use a good Volvo indie, get these problems sorted at same time as mot.

All bulbs should light on ignition for a couple of secs and suggest sny not lighting would be an mot failure in any case.

It could be a a very simple fix, but in any case your safety and passenger safety will be compromised unless you get this sorted asap.

I understand your concern but a steering angle sensor doesn’t really affect day to day usage. After all it’s been a fault for nearly a year. But just to update I bit the bullet and purchased a new on from Volvo for an eye watering £268+vat, cleared the codes and now it’s perfect 👍🏻
