## Discrepancy

ON GEAR EXTENSION INTO PIE, GEAR DOOR OPEN LIGHT NEVER ILLUMINATED. BULB CHECKED GOOD. GEAR RECYCLED. ON NEXT EXTENSION IT DID NOT COME ON BUT ONLY FOR 1 SECOND, NOT THE NORMAL 30 SECONDS. VERIFIED, FOUND GEAR DOOR OPEN LAMP WORN WHICH CAUSED AN INTERMITTENT PROBLEM. OPS CHECKED GOOD IAW DC-9 AMM 32-60-00-0.
