    Do you know what each wire is hooked to on the old thermostat?

    Perhaps this will help

    All but the blue wire was hooked up. So we have 4 wires to try & put into 3 places. We have the manual for the new one but still don't know what 3 wires to choose. Thanks for trying.

    The most common color code would be (red-R 24v power) (yellow-Y compressor a/c) (green-G indoor blower) (white-W heat) (black-C common) hope you can use this !
