## Discrepancy

PILOT REPORTED, THE BRAKES FAILED ON THE CAPTAIN'S SIDE, BOTH PEDALS.  CYCLED THE BRAKE ANTI-SKID SWITCH WITHOUT RESTORING THE BRAKE EFFECTIVENESS.  THIS WAS THE SECOND OCCURANCE OF THE SAME PROBLEM ON THE SAME DAY.  MAINTENANCE FOUND THE NR 4 MAIN LANDING GEAR TIRE CAP TO BE LOOSELY FITTED TO THE ANTI-SKID TRANSDUCER.  REPLACED THE TIRE CAP, ALL OPERATIONAL CHECKS GOOD.  THE AIRCRAFT WAS RELEASED WITH NO FURTHER PROBLEMS.
