## Discrepancy

WHILE EN ROUTE FROM PIT TO AZO, THE CREW RECEIVED A BATTERY OVERHEAT INDICATION ON THE RED WARNING PANEL.  THE CREW FOLLOWED THE QUICK REFERENCE HANDBOOK AND CONTACTED MAINTENANCE CONTROL.  THE CREW REPORTED THAT THE FLIGHT WOULD DIVERT INTO CAK.  WHILE ON APPROACH THE INDICATION BECAME INTERMITTENT AND ON FINAL THE INDICATION HAD EXTINGUISHED.  MAINTENANCE INSPECTED AND REPLACED THE RIGHT SIDE MAIN BATTERY IN ACCORDANCE WITH DORNIER MAINTENANCE MANUAL 24-00-00.  OPERATIONAL CHECKS WERE PERFORMED AND THE FLIGHT CONTINUED TO AZO WITH NO FURTHER INCIDENTS.
