Possible Causes

Defective main control board, Corrupted firmware, Shorted low‑voltage wiring (thermostat, outdoor sensor, bus), Electrical surge damage

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Turn off power at the breaker before touching any control wiring.

  • Power cycle: Turn off power for at least 60 seconds, then restore. Observe if the E11 clears temporarily.
  • Inspect low‑voltage wiring: Check thermostat, outdoor sensor, and any bus connections for shorts, crushed cables, or incorrect polarity. Disconnect external controls one by one to see if the error clears.
  • Check board for damage: Look for burn marks, swollen components, or corrosion on the NTI control board. If present, the board must be replaced.
  • Firmware/board replacement: Control board replacement and firmware updates should be performed by an NTI‑trained technician to ensure compatibility and safe operation.
