## Discrepancy

KLRD/KDAY - FLT 529 - THE MLG DOOR NOT LATCHED LIGHT REMAINED ON AFTER GEAR RETRACTION.  THE FLIGHT CREW CYCLED THE LANDING GEAR AND THE LIGHT EXTINGUISHED NORMALLY.  MAINTENANCE CLEANED AND LUBED THE UPLATCH OVER-CENTER MECHANISM.  AN OPERATIONAL CHECK OF THE LANDING GEAR WARNING SYSTEM WAS GOOD.
