## Discrepancy

THE L1 DOOR WAS EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO ARM AND THE ARMED INDICATOR LIGHT SOMETIMES DOES NOT INDICATE AS ARMED.  THE AIRCRAFT WAS GROUNDED.  FOUND THE L1 DOOR EMERGENCY SLIDE GIRT BAR OUT OF POSITION. REMOVED, REINSTALLED AND LASED THE GIRT BAR IAW JC 26L0025011. DOOR NOW ARMS AND DISARMS CORRECTLY. OK FOR SERVICE.
