## Discrepancy

DEPARTING, AFTER TAKEOFF, NOSE GEAR INTRANSIT LIGHT REMAINED ON AFTER GEAR SELECTED UP.  GEAR DOWN WAS SELECTED AND NORMAL ILLUMINATED.  FLIGHT CONTINUED.  MAINTENANCE OPERATIONALLY CHECKED STEERING AND RETRACTION SYSTEMS AND COULD NOT DUPLICATE MALFUNCTION.  THE STEERING FOLLOW UP CONTROL VALVE WAS REPLACED AS A PRECAUTIONARY MEASURE DUE TO PREVIOUS HISTORY WITH THIS VALVE.  NO FURTHER PROBLEM AS OF 7/30/03.
