## Discrepancy

CREW REPORTED THAT THE NOSE WHEEL STEERING MALFUNCTIONED DURING TAXI TO PARKING AFTER LANDING. MAINTENANCE TROUBLESHOT AND DETERMINED THAT THERE WERE TWO BROKEN WIRES AT THE CONNECTOR PLUG B2P1 FOR THE NOSE WHEEL STEERING ACTUATOR. THE BROKEN WIRES WERE REPAIRED AT THE CANNON PLUG PER THE AIRCRAFT MAINTENANCE MANUAL, FUNCTIONAL CHECKS WERE FOUND TO BE SATISFACTORY. SERVICE BULLETIN 45-32-12 HAD BEEN PREVIOUSLY COMPLIED WITH. THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE LEAR 45 FLEET.
