    Replacing Weathertron thermostat with Honeywell
    I am attempting to replace our Weathertron thermostat with a Honeywell RTH3100C. We have a Trane heatpump system. I am having trouble with the wiring. My wires don't match the 'less common wire designations' in the manual.
    I have the following wires on the Weathertron:
    R-red
    T-brown
    O-orange
    G-green
    Y-yellow
    X2-black
    B-blue
    W-white
    F-Pink
    and a grey wire I don't think was connected to anything-it is not taped off, and we don't remember disconnecting it, it just suddenly appeared after we took off the wire plate.

    Here is what I have based on the Honeywell installation guide:
    E=Weathertron X2
    Aux=Weathertron W
    Y=Weathertron Y
    G=Weathertron G or F (not sure which one to do)
    O=Weathertron O
    L=Weathertron F
    R=Weathertron R
    B=Weathertron B (not sure which one to do)
    C=Weathertron B

    I'm not sure where the T wire should go or what to do with the grey wire.

    Thanks for the help.

    Do you have schematic for the Honeywell RTH3100C?

    The thermostat you have will not work with your system. You need a heat pump thermostat. READ number 1 Introduction to see what I mean.
