## Discrepancy

ON APPROACH, SELECTED GEAR HANDLE DOWN, PUMP RAN, GEAR UNSAFE LIGHT ILLUMINATED, GEAR DOORS DID NOT OPEN, RECYCLED GEAR AND STILL UNSAFE.  CONTACTED MAINTENANCE CONTROL AND PULLED THE T-HANDLE AND PUMPED THE GEAR DOWN, GEAR CAME DOWN WITH THREE GREENS.  AIRCRAFT LANDED WITHOUT INCIDENT.  MAINTENANCE REPLACED HYDRAULIC PUMP, RELAY 15GA (PN M83536/6-022L) AND SOCKET 15GA-31 (PN RSE120060).  ALL CHECKS GOOD.
