## Discrepancy

ON FINAL APPROACH GOT INTERMITTENT SLAT DISAGREE LVL 2 ALERT, ALERT WOULD COME ON FOR 1 OR 2 SECONDS THEN GO OUT.  STICK SHAKER WOULD ACTIVATE WITH DISAGREE ALERT.  RETRACTED GEAR & WENT TO FLAPS 15 170 KTS & DISAGREE ALERT STOPPED.  RECONFIGURED & LANDED.  NO ADVERSE PITCH OR ROLL NOTED WITH AUTOPILOT ON OR  OFF.  TROUBLE SHOT SLAT SYS IAW FIM 27-80-00-2.  ALL FCC TESTS PASSED WITH NO FAIL INDICATIONS.  PERFORMED AMM 27-84-00-5-0 ADJUSTMENT TEST OF SLAT POSITION SENSORS & FOUND SENSOR L2A INDUCTANCE READING OUT OF TOLERANCE.  ADJUSTED SENSOR L2A AS REQUIRED & CYCLED SLATS TO FULLY EXTEND & RETRACT SEVERAL TIMES.  ALL READINGS FALL WITHIN SPECIFIED TOLERANCE & NO SLAT DISAGREE ALERT DISPLAYED.
