## Discrepancy

UPON RETRACTION AFTER TAKEOFF ALL OF THE LANDING GEAR RED AND GREEN LIGHTS ILLUMINATE WITHOUT COMPLETING GEAR RETRACTION.  WHEN RECYCLED, LANDING GEAR ONLY RETRACTS AFTER ABOUT A 5 SECOND DELAY AND EXTENDS NORMALLY.  PERFORMED MULTIPLE GEAR SWINGS, COULD NOT DUPLICATE.  REPLACED LANDING GEAR CONTROL BOX FOR TROUBLESHOOTING.  OPS CHECK GOOD.  P/N 120-38594-501, S/N ON: 120060, OFF: 148922-305.
