## Discrepancy

DURING TAKEOFF, THE CREW RECEIVED A MAIN DOOR PROXI SWITCH FAIL INDICATION AND ABORTED TAKEOFF.  OUTSTATION MAINTENANCE INSPECTED THE PSEU IN ACCORDANCE WITH DORNIER MAINTENANCE MANUAL 32-00-00 AND FOUND CODES A06 AND S33 AND CLEANED THE MAIN DOOR PROXI SWITCH WHICH DID NOT CORRECT THE DEFICIENCY.  THE AIRCRAFT WAS THEN SCHEDULED TO FERRY TO DAY.
