## Discrepancy

WHEN PEFORMING CAUTION/ADVISORY LIGHT TEST, THE ADVISORY LIGHTS TEST SETS OFF THE "FIRE BELL" AND THE "ENGINE FIRE PRESS TO RESET" RED WARNING LIGHTS.  FOUND SHORT ON CONNECTOR PLUG, CONNECTOR 2600-J24 BETWEEN PINS C AND B, R & R CONNECTOR.  ALL OPS CHECKS GOOD, CAUTION ADVISORY LIGHTS TEST NORMALLY.
