## Discrepancy

WHILE ON APPROACH TO KNOXVILLE, THE RT FIRE LIGHT ILLUMINATED.  A PRECAUTIONARY ENGINE SHUT DOWN WAS MADE FOLLOWED BY AN UNEVENTFUL LANDING.  INVESTIGATION FOUND A DEFECTIVE CONNECTION ON THE FIRE DETECTION LEAD CAUSING A FALSE FIRE INDICATION.  INSTALLATION WAS CORRECTED AND SYSTEM TESTED NORMALLY.
