After landing an MU3 flight crew experienced braking problems. When the aircraft failed to decelerate, the flight crew performed a go around and diverted to their alternate. A precautionary gear extension was made en route after approach control stated that the aircraft may have clipped a light at the opposite end of the runway during the go around. During landing rollout at the alternate airport, the left brake failed and the left heat plugs deflated the tire.

Narrative:
Descending out of 12000 ft with anti-ice on we began to encounter moderate icing in the clouds. We were given vectors for the approach to the ILS runway 3 to mkc circle to land on runway 1. After picking up the airport we elected to circle to land on runway 1 at circling minimums of 1400 ft. This approach was limited to a flaps 10 degree landing due to the icing conditions, so our speed was reference +10 KTS. A report of fair to good was given to us on runway condition by an airport vehicle. With turbulence on final approach we were reference +20 KTS. Upon touchdown at approximately 1500 ft out of 7000 ft we applied the brakes. After a brief sensation of braking the aircraft was not decelerating. We elected to go around. On climb out approach alerted us that we may have clipped an approach light on the opposite end of runway 1. So we extended the gear and 3 green appeared. Our alternate was mci. On approach into mci we were picking up moderate icing and turbulence. We touched down on the 1000 ft markers at mci. Upon touchdown after the brakes were applied the left main tire blew. We maintained aircraft control and exited the runway 1R at the end. No injuries. Just a failed left brake and a blown left tire. Supplemental information from acn 327015: heat plugs let left tire deflate.
Original NASA ASRS Text
Title: AFTER LNDG AN MU3 FLC EXPERIENCED BRAKING PROBS. WHEN THE ACFT FAILED TO DECELERATE, THE FLC PERFORMED A GAR AND DIVERTED TO THEIR ALTERNATE. A PRECAUTIONARY GEAR EXTENSION WAS MADE ENRTE AFTER APCH CTL STATED THAT THE ACFT MAY HAVE CLIPPED A LIGHT AT THE OPPOSITE END OF THE RWY DURING THE GAR. DURING LNDG ROLLOUT AT THE ALTERNATE ARPT, THE L BRAKE FAILED AND THE L HEAT PLUGS DEFLATED THE TIRE.
Narrative: DSNDING OUT OF 12000 FT WITH ANTI-ICE ON WE BEGAN TO ENCOUNTER MODERATE ICING IN THE CLOUDS. WE WERE GIVEN VECTORS FOR THE APCH TO THE ILS RWY 3 TO MKC CIRCLE TO LAND ON RWY 1. AFTER PICKING UP THE ARPT WE ELECTED TO CIRCLE TO LAND ON RWY 1 AT CIRCLING MINIMUMS OF 1400 FT. THIS APCH WAS LIMITED TO A FLAPS 10 DEG LNDG DUE TO THE ICING CONDITIONS, SO OUR SPD WAS REF +10 KTS. A RPT OF FAIR TO GOOD WAS GIVEN TO US ON RWY CONDITION BY AN ARPT VEHICLE. WITH TURB ON FINAL APCH WE WERE REF +20 KTS. UPON TOUCHDOWN AT APPROX 1500 FT OUT OF 7000 FT WE APPLIED THE BRAKES. AFTER A BRIEF SENSATION OF BRAKING THE ACFT WAS NOT DECELERATING. WE ELECTED TO GAR. ON CLBOUT APCH ALERTED US THAT WE MAY HAVE CLIPPED AN APCH LIGHT ON THE OPPOSITE END OF RWY 1. SO WE EXTENDED THE GEAR AND 3 GREEN APPEARED. OUR ALTERNATE WAS MCI. ON APCH INTO MCI WE WERE PICKING UP MODERATE ICING AND TURB. WE TOUCHED DOWN ON THE 1000 FT MARKERS AT MCI. UPON TOUCHDOWN AFTER THE BRAKES WERE APPLIED THE L MAIN TIRE BLEW. WE MAINTAINED ACFT CTL AND EXITED THE RWY 1R AT THE END. NO INJURIES. JUST A FAILED L BRAKE AND A BLOWN L TIRE. SUPPLEMENTAL INFO FROM ACN 327015: HEAT PLUGS LET L TIRE DEFLATE.
