    Thermostat wiring
    I am attempting to hook up a digital thermostat in my home. Old thermostat has 6 wires,
    Yellow to y, green to g, red to r, blue to o, white to e and brown to c.
    The thermostat has 5 connectors, RH, RC,W,Y AND G. I checked
    My thermostat at my last home and have Green to G, Blue to RC, Red
    To RH, Yellow to Y/O and white to W/B. I saw other posts that said to
    Jumper RH and RC. Will I go wrong here if I put blue to RC or do I need
    To jumper RC and RH and not use the blue and brown wire.

    Your new thermostat must take batteries, take the blue wire and just coil it up and , jumper rh and rc attach red only to rh /rc , or , get a new t-stat , which doesn't take batteries , and you will find the all is the same except your blue wire now will go to c terminal or commonalsothe same with the brown wire coil it up you will not need it

    Your need a 2heat/1cool heatpump thermostat , if you notice your new t-stat does not have a (o) terminal you need that , that is for the reversing valve. good luck
