## Discrepancy

(CAN) THE RT MLG INDICATION WAS A YELLOW "X" AFTER STARTUP, GIVING AN "UNDETERMINED MLG POSITION".  THE RT MLG INDICATOR WOULD INTERMITTENTLY FLASH "GREEN" AND THEN BACK TO A YELLOW "X".  TROUBLESHOOTING CONFIRMED THAT THE RT MLG "UP" PROXIMITY SWITCH WAS NOT WORKING IN A CORRECT MANNER.  THE RT MLG PROXIMITY SWITCH WAS REPLACED WITH A NEW SWITCH.  GROUND TESTED SERVICEABLE.
