## Discrepancy

DURING CLIMB OPERATION THE NR 2 L/E FLAP AMBER LIGHT REMAINED ILLUMINATED AFTER FLAP RETRACTION. CREW PERFORMED APPROPRIATE CHECKLIST AND RETURNED TO DEPARTURE WHERE IT LANDED WITHOUT INCIDENT. POST FLIGHT INSP WAS PERFORMED AND THE NR 2 L/E FLAP POSITION INDICATING SWITCH WAS DETERMINED TO BE AT FAULT. REMOVED AND REPLACE NR 2 L/E FLAP POSITION SWITCH AND PERFORMED OPERATION CHECKS. NO DEFECTS WERE NOTED. ACFT WAS RETURNED TO SERVICE.
