    Yes red to either r or rc and a jumper between them. When your emer heat lite comes on 2 degrees lower then the setting does the air get warmer? Have you noticed?

    With the HOneywell TH6220D which is 2 heat 2 cool
    It has the following connection:
    Rc, R, W (O/B), W2 (AUX), Y, Y2 (E), G, L, C

    Please explain how to do electrical connection based on my Bryant connection.

    Yes, I just check, it is blue for C on my current thermostat. So, I need another jumper to W2 and Y2 right??

    Jump r to rc, and jump aux to E

    That shold do what your other stat was, but you will need to make sure you do the installer setup correctly to get the heat to work right.

    OK,
    Let me make this clear, Red to R or Rc with a jumper
    Yellow to Y
    Green to G
    Orange to O/B which is also (W)
    White to aux which is also W2 with a jumper to E which is also Y2
    Blue to C
    And L should be leaved alone right?

    Correct L is just for a light to flash if you have a problem outside it is not needed.

    Thank you so much Josh, you sound like an expert and I would trust your judgement on this. I'll buy the 2 heat 2 cool then hook up exactly what you said.

    Thanks again. You're the best, and I'll let you know once I got it set up.

    Josh, I have one final question for you. My current Bryant thermostat only show - Heat, EMH, Cool, Fan, Off. It does not indicate the auxiliary heat anywhere and I assume that Emergency and auxilery are the same thing.

    My Honeywell TH6220D only come with one jumper and it is being used for the R & Rc. Do I have to make up another jumper for the aux and emh, or I just need to make one connection to emh and ignore the aux. Please let me know what you think. Thanks a bunch

    I would put the jumper in. it will work just like your old stat did if you wire it to aux. the problem is if you do not put in the jumper. If you switch your stat to emergency for any reason with a wire not on the E terminal you will not get any heat.

    OK, I'll do that. Thanks a bunch

    Hey Josh, I have it installed and it worked like a charm. Thank you very much for your help. You're a genius man, and we need more people like you on the net to make other people life a lot easier.

    Thanks again.

    Hey Josh, I just ran into another problem, the heat work fine for a while, but when I switch over to A/C for the summer, I don't get any cool air but only hot air. Did I do something wrong?? Please let me know. Thanks

    Do you have the orange wire on o? And did you set the cooling to energize the reversing valve. In the installer setup?

    Yes, I have the orange wire on O/B . And the second question I don't understand. What do you mean my energize the reverse valve??

    And I just switch it back to my old Bryant thermostat and it works fine. Something is wrong with the wiring. I can't figure out!!
