## Discrepancy

(CAN) ON ARRIVAL AT DESTINATION ON FINAL APPROACH, CREW WERE UNABLE TO LOWER THE GEAR USING NORMAL PROCEDURE.  ACFT DID NOT LAND BUT RETURNED & WENT INTO HOLD POSITION & CARRIED OUT A SUCCESSFUL EMER GEAR LOWERING PROCEDURE.  ACFT THEN LANDED UNEVENTFULLY.  FAULT WAS TRACED TO BROKEN WIRE ON CONNECTOR 3261-P8 ON THE LANDING GEAR SELECTOR VLV.  THE CONNECTOR WAS REPLACED & AS A PRECAUTION, THE LANDING GEAR SELECTOR VLV.  ACFT WAS JACKED & A FULL FUNCTION SYS CARRIED OUT WITH NO PROBLEM.  THE ACFT WAS RELEASED BACK TO SERVICE.
