    Wiring a Robert Shaw 3210 Thermostat
    How do I wire up this new Robertshaw 3210 Thermostat?

    I have a gas, forced-air furnace.
    The wires coming out of my wall are labeled: RC, Y, W, G.
    The new Robertshaw 3210 thermostat has these connectors: R, C, L, O, B, W2, E/W1, Y1, G

    Which wires go to which connectors? Do I need to add some jumpers?

    Thank you super handy man!

    Do you have airc conditioning connected to the furnace and if so is it a heat pump.

    If you do not have a heat pump you need to get a different thermostat, one that is for heat only if you only have heat and heat and cooling if you have both heating and cooling.

    Give me some information and I will help you connect it to you furnace.

    Wow! Thanks for the link on your 2nd post no less.

    R... Rc
    Y... Y1
    W.. W1
    G... G

    To avoid replacing batteries add the C wire.
    And make the appropriate configuration changes

    Letmetellu: Yes, I have an AC unit. It sits outside. Not sure if it is a heat pump. It has a compressor on it. Does that help?

    If it is not a heat pump then you wire it the way that KeepitSimple showed you above.
