Thanks Dave. We'll have another go at trying to provoke the light to come on by moving the wires, but so far as much as we wiggled, it made no difference - it stayed on with the gate open, and stayed off with it lowered more than a few inches.
I've done a bit of searching on the net and your idea of disconnecting the light sounds a good one if we can't fix it quickly (the MoT is Thursday) - I may call the garage to confirm with them that this'll be ok, til we find a fix.
