    The old thermostat is a trane weathertron. The wiring on it was O, B, Y, R, G, X2,W and T
    The installation instructions do not show where the T wire would go. I tried leaving it off and the thermostat does not work.

    Read this one

    It says to tape off (T). Are you sure you do not have another problem. I never new a unit that required the (T) to be hooked up except for the original units the thermostat was made for. Do you still have the old Trane/GE units.

    Question?

    Did you have separate wires for RH and RC on the old thermostat?
    If you did did you remove the jumper?
    If you did no did you leave the jumper in?

    Did you follow EXACTLY the diagram on page 12

    You need a jumper wire from R to RC, X2 and W will go to the same place, T is not used cap off.
