## Discrepancy

DURING TAKEOFF, THE CREW REPORTED AN UNSAFE GEAR INDICATION ON RETRACTION. THE CREW HEARD A LOUD REPETETIVE SOUND FROM 1 OF THE GEARS TRYING TO COME UP. THE CREW RETURNED TO THE AIRPORT WITH 3 DOWN AND LOCKED.  THE ACFT LANDED WITHOUT INCIDENT.  THE ACFT WAS REMOVED FROM SERVICE, PLACED ON MEL 32-03.  R & R MLG UPPER HARNESS IAW MM 32-11-40 PERFORMED EXTENTION AND RETRACTION AND FOUND WORKING PROPERLY AT THIS TIME.  THIS ACTION CLEARS MEL 32-03 AUTH 080002DMC.  THE ACFT WAS RETURNED TO SERVICE.
