Failing to provision ALB

[MostafaWael-CA]

Describe the bug
I tried to install the AWS load balancer controller using Helm and it failed to provision an ALB on AWS when I created new ingresses.

Expected outcome

An ALB should be created.

Current outcome

• In my ingress, I got: Failed build model due to operation error Elastic Load Balancing v2: DescribeLoadBalancers, get identity: get credentials: failed to refresh cached credentials, failed to load credentials, exceeded maximum number of attempts, 10, request send failed, Get "http://169.254.170.23/v1/credentials": dial tcp 169.254.170.23:80: i/o timeout
• In the controller: {"level":"error","ts":"2025-01-21T20:37:36Z","msg":"Reconciler error","controller":"ingress","object":{"name":"new-shared-k8s-alb-group"},"namespace":"","name":"new-shared-k8s-alb-group","reconcileID":"18b4f2a0-0d46-46b3-a89a-e43cf2c58dd1","error":"operation error Elastic Load Balancing v2: DescribeLoadBalancers, get identity: get credentials: failed to refresh cached credentials, failed to load credentials, exceeded maximum number of attempts, 10, request send failed, Get \"http://169.254.170.2/ and 2025/01/21 20:49:32 http: TLS handshake error from 10.0.21.244:35898: EOF
  Then I installed cert-manager using kubectl apply -f https://github.com/cert-manager/cert-manager/releases/download/v1.15.0/cert-manager.yaml and the error became {"level":"error","ts":"2025-01-21T21:48:06Z","msg":"Reconciler error","controller":"ingress","object":{"name":"new-shared-k8s-alb-group"},"namespace":"","name":"new-shared-k8s-alb-group","reconcileID":"6cbe3d55-9104-469f-855f-c1d279b76d36","error":"operation error Elastic Load Balancing v2: DescribeLoadBalancers, get identity: get credentials: failed to refresh cached credentials, failed to load credentials, exceeded maximum number of attempts, 10, request send failed, Get \"http://169.254.170.23/v1/credentials\": dial tcp 169.254.170.23:80: i/o timeout"}

Environment

• AWS Load Balancer controller version v2.11.0
• Chart version 1.11.0
• Using EKS (yes/no), if so version? v1.25.16-eks-2d5f260
