    Installed new thermostat unit doesn't work
    Hi, Installed a digital thermostat, replacing a manual one. The fan worked for a short time, then switched to heat mode and it didn't work. Found I had it wired one wire wrong, Wired it right, then nothing, Could this cause damage to my unit? I put the old one back on it still doesn't work. I have a heat pump and bought a ritetemp thermostat 6020.

    Check for a blown fuse on the indoor unit circuit board. Also check to see if you still have 24 volt control voltage.
