Had all my actuators rebuilt during my annual.... gear knob snapping back briskly now. Did some landings at the mechanics airport, all is well. Flew home, more landings none hard but upon gear up/climbout after the 3rd or 4th one at the home airport I notice one green light on the nose gear. Check mirror... it's down. Cycle a few times, mains going up and down, nose doesn't move at all.... still green.

Landed, no gear collapse. Put it away.

Any thoughts? Opening it up tomorrow... trying to figure if it's safe to fly to mechanics airport with gear down.
