## Discrepancy

FLT AZ9162 - MXP-ORD - ON TAKEOFF ROLL AT 20 KNOTS, THE FLT CREW SAW A MOMENTARY RED FLASH ON THE EICAS.  BELIEVED TO BE A FIRE WARNING MESSAGE, BUT IT WAS TOO QUICK TO READ.  TAKEOFF WAS ABORTED WITHOUT EXCEEDING TAXI SPEED AND A/C RETURNED TO BLOCKS.  WHEN A/C ARRIVED AT THE BLOCKS, THERE WAS NOT EICAS MESSAGE.  ALSO, THERE WERE NO PRESENT LEG FAULT(PFL) MESSAGES.  PERFORMED FIRE WARNING/OVERHEAT TEST AND FOUND TO BE NORMAL.  AIRCRAFT VISUALLY CHECKED FOR ABNORMALITIES AND NONE FOUND.  NO HISTORY MESSAGES IN THE CMC.  UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE REPORTED DISCREPANCY.  (M)
