Possible Causes

Faulty internal low-voltage power supply on PCB, Loose neutral or live connection, Intermittent mains supply, Shorted component on control board drawing excess current

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Switch off the oven at the mains before inspection.

  • Check mains connections: Inspect the terminal block where the oven connects to the house wiring. Tighten any loose screws and check for heat damage.
  • Test outlet or cooker switch: Use another high-load appliance to confirm the circuit is stable. If lights dim or breakers trip, consult an electrician.
  • Inspect control PCB: Remove the control board and look for bulging capacitors or burnt components in the low-voltage section (near small transformers or regulators).
  • Power reset: Disconnect power for 15 minutes, then reconnect and set the clock. If E11 returns quickly, the PCB is likely faulty.
  • Replace PCB: Fit a new main control PCB designed for your Russell Hobbs oven model.
