## Discrepancy

CREW REPORTED A NR 1 ENGINE THRUST REVERSER FAIL MESSAGE ILLUMINATED DURING FLIGHT.  THE CREW SHUTDOWN THE NR 1 ENGINE AND THE AIRCRAFT LANDED AT GSO WITHOUT INCIDENT.  MAINTENANCE INSPECTED THE AIRCRAFT AND PLACED THE NR 1 THRUST REVERSER ON MEL.  AFTER TROUBLESHOOTING THE NR 4 STOW AND TRANSIT, SWITCH WAS FOUND TO BE FAULTING.  THE AFFECTED SWITCH WAS REMOVED AND REPLACED, THE AIRCRAFT WAS OPERATIONALLY CHECKED, THE MEL CLEARED, AND THEN RETURNED TO SERVICE.
