## Discrepancy

ON INITIAL GEAR EXTENSION, RED NOSE LIGHT DID NOT ILLUMINATE DURING GEAR EXTENSION WITH NO GREEN LIGHT. RECYCLED GEAR WITH ONLY MOMENTARY FLICKER OF RED NOSE LIGHT. GREEN NOSE LIGHT EVENTUALLY ILLUMINATED AND WAS VERIFIED. ALL OTHER INDICATIONS NORMAL. INSPECTED SYSTEM IN NOSE GEAR WHEEL WELL, FOUND CORROSION P1-133 NOT SECURED, RESECURED, VERIFIED SWITCH SECURITY, CLEANED CONNECTOR AT SWITCH SW-1-9. SYSTEM WORKS WITH GOOD INDICATION ON GROUND IAW MFG AMM 32-51-00 AND 32-00.
