    Thermostat wiring
    I bought a honeywell rth6300b programmable thermostat and it has connections g,w,y,r,rc with a jumper between the r and rc. My old thermostat had a c,r,w2,g,e,o,y wires can I even hook this up or do I need to get a different thermostat. Thanks in advance for any help I read several entry's prior to getting it and it seemed simple I guess I should have looked at the old one first??

    You need to get a heatpump thermostat, one stage cooling two stage heating. You have a heat/cool only thermostat it can't be used with a heatpump.

    I am not suggesting you buy a thermostat from this site

    But just look at models available for reference

    I got a rth7000 honeywell and all wires matched up except I have a w2 and it does not show on the heat pump side but does on the conventional side so I hooked it there. Cooling is working fan is working heat and auto fan are not??

    Do you have a jumper from rh to rc? How do you have it wired?
