## Discrepancy

(CAN) ON APPROACH, LANDING GEAR CYCLED DOWN FOR LANDING. THE NOSE LANDING GEAR RED INDICATOR STAYED ILLUMINATED AND NO GREEN INDICATION WAS SEEN. GEAR WAS RE-CYCLED AND THE GEAR WAS EXTENDED WITH PROPER INDICATION. MAINTENANCE LUBED THE NOSE GEAR AND JACKED THE GEAR AND CYCLED THE GEAR NUMEROUS TIMES, NO FAULTS FOUND. THE AIRCRAFT WAS DISPATCHED, NO FAULT ON LANDING THERE. THIS IS THE SECOND OCCURENCE AND SECOND SDR FOR THE SAME AIRCRAFT AND SNAG. DUE TO ITS HISTORY, NOSE GEAR DOWN POSITION SWITCH S93 AND THE NOSE GEAR LOCKED SWITCH S96 ARETO BE REPLACED BEFORE THE AIRCRAFT WILL BEDISPATCHED.POSSIBLE INTERNAL INTERMITTENT FAILURE TO ONE OF THE SWITCHES AND AT THE SAME TIME ALL WIRING WILL BE INSPECTED.
