## Discrepancy

(CAN) DURING CLIMB, CRUISE AND DESCENT THE MAIN GEAR DOOR LIGHTS AND NOSE GEAR UNSAFE LIGHT PLUS GEAR INTRANSIT LIGHT WERE ON PERIODICALLY. ON APPROACH, NOSE GEAR WOULD INDICATE UNSAFE AND THEN SAFE. ALTERNATE EXTENSION CARRIED OUT. NOSE LANDING GEAR DOWN LOCK SENSORS AND DRAG STRUT SENSOR WERE UNSERVICEABLE. BOTH SENSORS REPLACED.
