## Discrepancy

GEG - UPON PUSHBACK, THE FLAP DRIVE CAUTION LIGHT ILLUMINATED WITH THE FLAPS SET TO 5 DEGREES. MAINTENANCE RESET THE FLAP CONTROL UNIT. THE FLAPS OPERATED NORMALLY FORM 5 DEG TO 35 BUT THE FLAP DRIVE CAUTION REMAINED ILLUMINATED. MAINTENANCE INSPECTED THE AIRCRAFT AND REPLACED THE LEFT INBOARD FLAP AND ASSOCIATED HARDWARE. OPERATIONAL CHECKS WERE PERFORMED AND CHECKED GOOD. AIRCRAFT WAS RETURNED TO SERVICE.
