Narrative:

At 18000 ft after takeoff ord brake overheat light came on. Gauge showed #2 brake over 300 degrees. Followed procedures in QRH -- light went out. Consulted tulsa -- told it was probably indicator problem. Dispatch also advised continue. Ord tower checked takeoff runway, no evidence of tire failure. Smf tower had trucks by runway watching landing. Captain landed, used maximum reverse -- no pressure on left brakes.normal touchdown, but passenger and flight attendants said later it sounded like tire blew on landing. After clear of runway trucks advised 1 wheel not turning. Consulted tulsa and local maintenance. Got towed in. Mechanic said hydraulic line to #2 brake had backed off, locking the pressure in the brake. Never got a wheel not turning light -- either at ord or smf.
