## Discrepancy

SEA - FUELING ON CAUTION LIGHT ILLUMINATED WHEN POWER WAS APPLIED FOR TAKE-OFF. TAKE-OFF WAS ABORTED. MAINTENANCE INSPECTED THE AIRCRAFT AND FOUND THE OUTBOARD LATCH ON THE FUEL DOOR OPEN. THE LATCH WAS INSPECTED AND FOUND TO BE SERVICABLE AND WAS RESECURED. WARNING LIGHT WAS VERIFIED TO BE OUT AND THE AIRCRAFT WAS RETURNED TO SERVICE.
