## Discrepancy

(CAN) ON APPROACH THE PILOT NOTICED THAT THE NOSE GEAR DOWN AND LOCKED LIGHT DID NOT ILLUMINATE AND THAT ALL THREE IN TRANSIT LIGHTS STAYED ON. LANDING GEAR WAS VERIFIED TO BE DOWN BY CONTROL TOWER PERSONNEL AND THE AIRCRAFT LANDED SAFELY. MAINTENANCE TRACED THE PROBLEM TO A BROKEN WIRE IN THE NOSE GEAR PROXIMITY SENSOR CANNON PLUG (P056, PIN A).
