Circuit breakers.

Recommended Posts

Hello there. I am new to PMDG, recently purchased the DC-6 for P3Dv4. I am really enjoying it and slowly figuring out all it's intricacies. I'm starting to use it for VA flights, which means I'm to the point where I don't think I'll screw up too badly! 

After startup today I noticed a warning light that I hadn't seen before. I had to search for the appropriate breaker to reset. A first in my many years of simming, very cool!

Thanks for a great product!

AFE had completed "Before Start" checklist, I had started all 4 engines and AFE had completed "After Start" checklist.

I noticed the red light on the top left of the main panel (instrument power failure or something like that) was still on.

I switched views to the breaker panel and found the related breaker tripped. I reset it and the light went out.

I completed the flight without further issue, so I guess I really don't know for sure what caused it.

You need to switch on in the overhead the power to electrical instruments. Otherwise you would not see for example fuel pressure.


Happy flying!
