Once it was established that there was not a danger of fire, smoke or an overheat condition the aircraft was repositioned to the go jets gate. Contract aircraft maintenance was called out to the aircraft where maintenance complied with a visual inspection of the main landing gear and doors and then deferred the brake temperature indication system per MEL 32-46-01 after completing Bombardier repair engineering order 670-32-46-0001.
