Narrative:

During an ILS instrument approach to tyq rnw 36 we lost the primary flight display (pfd) resulting in loss of data from GPS temporarily. The aircraft was positioned parallel to the class C airspace of ind in a position I believed to be just north of ind class C by reference to visual points on the ground. I instructed the student to fly 10 degrees further north of the class C airspace. After reset of the pfd my flight track showed on the northern edge of the class C ind airspace at 2700' MSL. My command to turn further left to a heading of 080 had us clear of class C. I believe we may have been inside class C airspace by approximately .1 to .2 nm for approximately less than 1 minute. I had visual reference to a light twin about 600' below and 1-2 mi east of my position on an approach to eye. We had no traffic advisory and no separation standards were compromised. We proceeded to tyq without incident.
