Possible Causes

Open or shorted supply NTC sensor, Loose sensor wiring harness, Sensor not fully inserted in well, Faulty control board input

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Turn off power and allow the boiler to cool before touching any sensors or piping.

  • Locate supply sensor: On NTI boilers, the supply NTC is typically clipped or inserted into a sensor well on the outlet manifold or heat exchanger.
  • Check connection: Inspect the two‑wire plug for corrosion, loose pins, or broken wires. Reseat the connector firmly.
  • Test resistance: With power off, disconnect the sensor and measure resistance with a multimeter. Compare to the NTI temperature/resistance chart. If reading is open, shorted, or far off spec, replace the sensor.
  • Inspect mounting: Ensure the sensor is fully inserted into the well and has good thermal contact. Re‑clip or secure as needed.
  • Control board check: If a known‑good sensor still gives E06, the control board’s sensor circuit may be defective and should be evaluated by a technician.
