## Discrepancy

THE CREW REPORTED SMOKE ODOR AFTER TAKEOFF.  SMOKE DISIPATED AFTER 5 MINUTES.  ALSO REPORTED ODOR ON DESCENT.  THEY ALSO NOTED THE LOCALIZER DID NOT WORK ON CAPTAIN`S OR F/O'S SIDE.  MAINTENANCE INSPECTED AND REPLACED THE COCKPIT FLASHLIGHT HOLDER/BRACKET ASSEMBLY.  OPS CHECKS WERE GOOD.  MAINTENANCE ALSO INSPECTED AND PERFORMED LOCALIZER CHECKS AND NO DEFECTS WERE FOUND.
