## Discrepancy

FLT 715 FROM MEM TO BNA, DURING SHORT APPROACH THE NOSE LANDING GEAR DID NOT INDICATE DOWN AND LOCKED.  THE RED LIGHT WAS ILLUMINATED AND THE GREEN LIGHT WAS OUT.  THE CREW PERFORMED APPROPRIATE CHECK LIST AND LANDED WITHOUT INCIDENT IN BNA.  POST FIGHT INSPECTION WAS PERFORMED, FOUND CHAFED WIRE ON NLG SWITCH.  REPAIRED CHAFED WIRE AND PERFORMED OPS CHECK.  NO OTHER DEFECTS WERE NOTED.  AIRCRAFT WAS RETURNED TO SERVICE.
