If the Cockpit Indicator does not illuminate, pull IBF circuit breaker. Run the altimeter test set
up to top of the range, check for continuity across the terminals of the Differential Pressure
Switch. If continuity is present, the Differential Pressure Switch function is acceptable and the
rest of the circuit is suspect. Upon completion of testing, ensure that aircraft electrical power is
OFF. Refer to Table 3.
