## Discrepancy

FLAP INDICATION EICAS.  DIVERTED TO MIA.  *S/D*  AN IMPROPERLY INSTALLED NOSE LANDING GEAR CENTERING CAM DID NOT ALLOW PROPER NOSE GEAR COMPRESSION, CAUSING CONFIGURATION WARNING LIGHTS TO APPEAR ON EICAS.  REPLACED THE NOSE LANDING GEAR CENTERING CAM WITH NEW CAM.  NOTE THAT THERE WAS NO PART DEFECT.  CAM WAS IMPROPERLY INSTALLED.
