## Discrepancy

DURING CLIMB THE FLIGHT CREW GOT A SPS ADVANCE MESSAGE ON THE EICAS.  AIRCRAFT RETURNED TO IAD.  MAINTENANCE INSPECTED AND REMOVED AND REPLACED THE SPS COMPUTOR, RT AFT MLG DOWNLOCK PROX SWITCH, SWAPPED THE RT MLG FWD PROX SWITCH WITH THE LT MLG DOWNLOCK PROX SWITCH.  SYSTEM OPS CHECKED GOOD.
