    Changing out thermostats
    I need to change a lennox 51h4001 thermostat to a vision pro TH8000 thermostat. I need to know where the wires land on which terminals on the new thermostat. If anyone could help it would be very much appreciated.

    Every single wire is backwards except for green. Lol but you will have to wire it back this way or you will have to change the wires at the furnace also. Your old stat did work the way this is wired right? If so I will give you the list for the new wiring.
