## Discrepancy

PHX - AIR TURN BACK - FLT 504 - CREW REPORTED THAT AFTER T/O HAD NORMAL GEAR RETRACTION, PASSING THROUGH 10000 FEET GOT A RED NOSE GEAR INDICATION.  CREW LOWERED GEAR AS PER MX CONTROL AND RECEIVED NORMAL MAIN DOWN AND LOCKED INDICATION BUT UNSAFE RED NOSE GEAR IND.  CREW VIEWED NOSE GEAR THROUGH VIEW PORT AND NOSE GEAR SHOWED DOWN AND LOCKED.  RETURNED TO PHX AND LANDED WITHOUT FURTHER INCIDENT.  MAINTENANCE REMOVED AND REPLACED THE PRIMARY NOSE GEAR DOWN SENSOR S845.  OPERATIONAL CHECKS WERE GOOD IAW MM 32-61-51.
