    Wiring Honeywell RTH230B
    Hello,

    OK, I feel like a moron, but here goes...

    I am replacing an old, round Honeywell thermostat that has two wires, red and white. My new thermostat is a Honeywell RTH230B. Nowhere in the instructions does it tell you how to wire the unit. Does the wire go from below and then screw in, or above? The instructions told me that for a 2-wire job, I should remove the jumpered wire from Rh and Rc. I can't even get that to happen!

    Help!!

    It's Saturday, are you applying the appropriate alcoholic beverage(s) in the proper volume?

    You use RH and W terminals.

    Do not forget to set J2 jumper to proper fuel use
