## Discrepancy

DURING INITIAL CLIMB, THE CREW RECEIVED A NR 2 ENGINE FIRE WARNING.  ENGINE INDICATIONS WERE NORMAL.  THE CREW INITIATED AN IN-FLIGHT SHUTDOWN OF THE NR 2 ENGINE IAW THE QRH.  THE CREW DECLARED AN EMERGENCY AND RETURNED TO LAS. THE PASSENGERS DID NOT BRACE.  MAINTENANCE DISCONNECTED THE FIRE LOOP CONNECTORS AND PERFORMED A MEGGER CHECK OF THE FIRE LOOPS.  A & B LOOPS MEASURED 1.5 K OHMS AND OPEN TO GROUND.  MAINTENANCE THEN PERFORMED A MEGGER CHECK ON THE HARNESS TO GROUND AND FOUND NO FAULTS. AS A PRECAUTIONARY MEASURE, MAINTENANCE REPLACED THE FIRE DETECTION UNIT IAW MM 26-12-34 PG 401.  OPS CHECK GOOD.
