## Discrepancy

GEG - FLIGHT 2353 - CREW REPORTS THAT WHEN CHECKING THE ADVISORY LIGHTS, THE FIRE DETECTION BELL SOUNDS.  MAINTENANCE INSPECTED THE AIRCRAFT SYSTEMS AND AFTER TROUBLESHOOTING FOUND THE NR 1 ENGINE FIRE DETECTOR LOOP -A- CONNECTOR BAD.  THE CONNECTOR WAS REPLACED, OPERATIONAL CHECKS WERE PERFORMED, AND THE AIRCRAFT WAS RETURNED TO SERVICE.
