Hi, This is a common point of confusion -- a developer token can be used to issue requests against *any* AdWords account (regardless of the accounts linked to the token's MCC) with the restriction that a pending developer token can only be used for requests on a test account. Of course, if you issue a request against an AdWords account for which your OAuth credentials do not grant access, the request will fail.
In your case, you do not (and you can not) link your test accounts with your production MCC. Instead, you should obtain a refresh token while logged in as your test account, and then use that in combination with your production MCC's developer token to make your API requests.
