## Discrepancy

DURING CRUISE FLIGHT, THE NOSE GEAR UNSAFE LIGHT ILLUMINATED. RIGHT HYDRAULIC SWITCH ON, 3000 PSI DID NOT RESOLVE THE PROBLEM. WHEN GEAR SELECTED DOWN, UNSAFE LIGHT REMAINED ILLUMINATED. GEAR DOWN LIGHT REMAINED OFF. DECLARED EMERGENCY.  REPLACED THE NOSE GEAR DOWN LOCK SWITCH IAW AMM 32-60-01-2. SWUNG THE GEAR SEVERAL TIMES, OPERATIONAL CHECK GOOD.
