We have and older thermostat by DICO my husband removed it last night to install a new therm. And didn't label the wiring like he was supposed to. The new therm. Is the wrong kind and I am stuck in a freezin house with little ones and no idea how to connect the wiring back to the old therm. Had he labeled we would be warm. Can someone help me with wiring?:mad:

How many wires come to the stat and what colors do you see? Do you have forced hot air with a/c or what other type of heat?

There are 7 wires coming out of the wall

Yellow white blue black green orange red

That is three more than I was hoping for. What type of heat system do you have and is there a/c

Heat pump the a/c and heat fuctioned off the same therm.
