## Discrepancy

(CAN) PILOT COULD NOT GET A GREEN LIGHT INDICATION ON THE LEFT MAIN GEAR.  PILOT MADE A SUCCESSFUL LANDING WITHOUT ANY DAMAGE TO THE AIRCRAFT.   AIRCRAFT WAS PUT ON JACKS IN THE HANGAR AND TORQUE TUBE WAS FOUND TO BE BROKEN.  NEW TORQUE TUBE WAS INSTALLED AND GEAR SWING WAS COMPLETED.  COULD NOT DETERMINE WHY THE PART HAD BROKEN AS EVERYTHING WAS WORKING CORRECTLY.  (X)
