AFTER THE CREW PERFORMED AND EMERGENCY EXTENSION ALL THREE GREEN GEAR INDICATIONS WERE GOOD. THE AIRCRAFT LANDED WITH NO FURTHER INCIDENT.MAINTENANCE TROUBLESHOT AND LOCATED A BROKEN WIRE BEHIND THE PILOTS LEFT KICK PANEL.  MAINTENANCE REPAIRED THE WIRE. NO PARTS WERE USED, THEREFORE NO TEARDOWN REPORT WILL BE REQUIRED.
