    Wiring a Hunter 44660 Thermostat
    Please help. I have the following connection on my old thermostat:
    Y - Yellow wire
    G - Green wire
    R - Red wire
    O - Brown wire
    C- Blue wire
    W2 - White wire

    I have the following options on my new thermostat:
    G
    W/B
    Y/O
    RC
    RC1
    RH
    Y1

    From reading other posts, I have come up with:
    Y - Yellow = Y1
    G - Green = G
    R - Red = RH
    O - Brown = Y/O
    C - Blue = RC
    W2 - White = W/B

    I have not connected this unit, yet. I have read where RC and RH are jumped.
    The instructions on this thermostat state to remove the RC - RH jumper
    for 5-Wire Systems. Please confirm or correct my attempt to install this unit.
    Thank you.

    As the manual says on page 11 "NOTE: If a wire marked “C” is present, DO NOT connect it to the thermosat." You thermostat is battery powered only and will not power from a transformer.

    Thanks. Perhaps, I should have read the manual more carefully.

    Thank you for all the help. I connected the thermostat and everything seems to be working great. I did have to jump the RH and RC connection. I do not understand why I had to jump it when the directions indicate not to. Thanks again.

    The heat is working also; I just checked it. Neither of my thermostats have the emergency heat function. Thank you.
