If the landing gear handle is down but the left gear does not lock, which indicator configuration is shown?

Explanation:
When the landing gear handle is down, each gear’s status is shown by green lights for locked-down gears and by a red UNLOCKED warning for any gear that hasn’t locked. If the left gear fails to lock while the others lock, you’d see the nose and right gear lights green (down and locked), the left gear indicator not showing a lock (off), and a red UNLOCKED warning for the left gear. That combination—green for the two locked gears, left light off, UNLOCKED red—forces the interpretation that the left gear did not lock despite the handle being down. This is the configuration described.
