## Discrepancy

A STRONG ODOR ACCOMPANIED BY SMOKE WAS OBSERVED IN THE COCKPIT DURING CLIMB-OUT OF DTW ENROUTE TO EWR. THE AIRCRAFT WAS DIVERTED TO CLE WHERE IT LANDED WITHOUT INCIDENT. MAINTENANCE FOUND THE FIRST OFFICER'S NR 5 WINDOW OVERHEATING AND CAUSING THE ODOR AND SMOKE. THE WINDOW AND WINDOW THERMAL SENSOR WERE REMOVED AND REPLACED IAW MM 56-11-31.  LEAK AND OPERATIONAL CHECKS WERE GOOD.
