    What to do if the MTI Furnace controller panel SV shows “HiaL”?
    • K
      Kenneth BoydAug 5, 2025
      If the controller panel SV displays “HiaL”, it indicates that the furnace temperature exceeds 1500 degrees. You should cool the furnace down and investigate the reason for the excessive temperature.

    How to fix 'OraL' on the MTI GSL-1500X-OTF Furnace controller panel SV?
    • R
      Richard SmithAug 20, 2025
      If the controller panel SV displays “OraL”, it means the thermocouples are broken. Replace the thermocouples (S type).

    What to do if the MTI Furnace power and heating element are fine, but the furnace can’t be controlled by program?
    • R
      raymondsmithAug 26, 2025
      If the power and heating element are functioning correctly, but the furnace cannot be controlled by the program, the controller or related circuit may be damaged. Check the controller for any issues. If the controller seems fine, further investigation by the manufacturer is needed to identify the root cause.

    How to fix an MTI Furnace with no power indication and an open power lock?
    • B
      Brianna MolinaAug 30, 2025
      If there is no power indication and the power lock is open, the fuse in the control panel may be broken. Check the control panel and replace the fuse.
