    ive found the newer t87 round honeywell stats do not work well with newer 90-95% systems.....the new systems have so many microprocessors and sensitive electronics that the tstat robs power from the control board and weird things happen....they work great on older systems that are very basic.. that is just my experience.

  • @MrCeora
    @MrCeora ปีที่แล้ว +1

    My furnace wouldn't turn on, and I realized that the problem started after I had changed the thermostat batteries. Checked the thermostat wiring and thought that the excess dielectric grease that was on the male and female terminals was causing a problem, then realized that because of the awkward location where the thermostat
    was mounted, that the display portion of the thermostat hadn't fully seated all the pins. If you didn't look at it closely, you couldn't see it wasn't seated.all the way It allowed me to run the fan, but not run anything in auto, therefore no call from the thermostat. Motto: Make sure the face plate is fully and evenly seated.

  • @user-wr3gp8hj3i
    @user-wr3gp8hj3i 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    I am having an issue where the temperature readout is incorrect (was reading 58 earlier when it was almost 90 outside and air hasn’t been on). Apparently a battery exploded, which I tried to clean up the best I could but it’s still reading 65-70 when it’s almost 80 outside. I can get it to turn on by overcompensating for temperature and the temperature readout goes down as the house cools but I’d really like it to read correctly and not have it on all day and night until I can get a new thermostat. Unfortunately my toddler will be home tomorrow with another 90+ day scheduled and with this pandemic I can’t just up and jump to a store to get one. Any tricks on cleaning up it better or testing specific components? Can it simply be recalibrated? It is a White Rodgers 1F80-361.

  • @whitestallion531
    @whitestallion531 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Hello could you possibly diagnose my problem?
    I usually set my AC to 78 in the summer. The AC will reach 78 and shut off. Then once the temp rises it will kick back on as normal. But sometimes it will reach the set temperature and won't come back on at all until I take a small pin and hit the reset button. I just had an AC guy here and he swapped out the thermostat with a new one. Well the problem still persists. A few weeks ago the capacitor was bad and he replaced that as well. Do you think it's the control board?

  • @tlindsey9769
    @tlindsey9769 3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    I have a Bryant electric furnace with A/C. Also have a Bryant smart thermostat. When we bought the house we got a warranty. The a/c went out and was determined to be a blower motor, which was a DC variable speed motor. The warranty repaired (replaced) it. They also had to replace a condensation pump. The thermostat requires us to push a red button to request heat, and set the desired temperature and set the time we want the heater to run. (I hate the smart thermostat) So if I warm the house for 1 hour, after the house is warm, or the 1 hour time is reached, the blower will continue to operate on low speed, (blows cold air) I want to replace the smart thermostat with one I can set the temperature and be able to turn it off if we leave the house. (on/off switch) and also included, (heat/cooling) In my mind, this might take care of the continuous running fan motor. I think the fan motor should stop when the temperature that is requested is reached. Currently the fan will always run even after the temperature or the set time is reached. Any suggestions? I am not impressed with the warranty company
    Thanks for your advise.

    My heat was running and not shutting off with old mercury thermostat so I replaced it with a honeywell programmable one. It worked perfectly for a week, but made clicking sound when heat would come on. Now heat is running without cutting off again. While on it will blow hot air then cold air without shutting off. I troubleshooted the new thermostat and everything was done correctly. NOW WHAT?

      @@acservicetechchannel thank you for the reply. I figured it out. I removed the moisture sensor temporally until it dried and the furnace started working again. I was wondering why all the voltage was good but nothing was coming in from thermostat but i saw that puck looking thing with "moisture" light on and i thought at first it was normal. But when i touched it, it was a little wet so I removed it and it started working again. I let the moisture sensor dry for a day and reinstalled it and now its working perfectly again.

  • @ronandy8681
    @ronandy8681 ปีที่แล้ว

    My AC fan and furnace only kicks on when the thermostat fan is on but not with switch in auto. Also the coil next to the electric condenser hums all the time unless thermostat is switched to auto mode but then neither AC or heater kicks on. In order to have heat or AC the thermostat switch must be in the on position. The AC unit and furnace are about 30+ years old , we rent by the way and have a slumlord so I'm trying to diagnose this on my own. I am a auto/diesel mechanic but know zippo about appliance electronics. Please help , I'm thinking it could be the thermostat, but not sure why the coil for the fan palms all the time. obviously the fan coil is being energized by the thermostat but why isn't the fan coming on ? The a/c fan motor only comes on when the thermostat is in the on position and not in auto ?! Frustrating.... any help would be appreciated .

    Sorry to bother yall but I have a Lennox split system. It's a heat pump. When I call for heat, I still getting low voltage to the O terminal. Why? Is it the board? It doesn't have a cube relay.

    My existing system is Gas Furnace and single AC unit. My existing thermostat has C,G,W,Y and R (no jumper). The new Thermostat has the choice of RC or RH with a jumper. (no R). Question: Which terminal do I place the existing "R" wire to? RC or RH? Do I leave the jumper in or remove?

    Please help, as my HVAC contractor has been unable to address the issues so far. Below are the units which have been purchased and installed in my residence. The installers have spent days re-wiring my Nest thermostats and they still appear to not function properly. Can you provide assistance? Can you provide a definite answer that 3rd Generation Nest should/will work with the below devices? If not, why not and which SMART thermostats will work? I have seen my neighbors with brand new and modern Carrier and Goodman systems which do not have any issues with Nest Gen3.
    Thank you,

    What if the batteries in the thermostat are good, the capacitor was recently switched out, and all the switches are on including the breaker, but the thermostat is blank? Any thoughts on that? By the way, I appreciate your extensive knowledge of HVAC systems, even if you go a little fast for me.

    Question, I have a digital thermostat and live in a two family home and the landlord has the electricity and heat rigged and I've bin noticing that night when it gets cold no matter how high I put the heat the temperature doesn't budge the number stays the same but during the day it's perfectly fine, is it possible that someone else is also tapped into my controls or is there something wrong with the thermostat it self?

Any thoughts?

  • @markhopkinsphoto7257

    Great video! My issue is different. This is the first time I am using my heater this winter. When I try to manually control and push the "hold" feature to hold the temp at say 64 it won't hold. Just a few seconds later the temp will jump to 68 or 70 or 72. My system never did this before. I changed the batteries and even bought a new thermostat and it's still doing the same thing. There are only a red and a white wires coming out of the wall and they're hooked correctly. I did have to re-light the pilot light--not sure why it burned out. Again, I haven't used the heater since last winter. What else can be wrong?

    @publicmail2 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Something interesting, I have a LUX Kono thermistat which is an excellent unit. It has many service settings. I noticed the OLD display is warm and I noticed when you select it on it has to compensate temp offset about 2 degrees, I don't keep it on. It has manual temp comp and how much swing per cycle.

    • @acservicetechchannel
      @acservicetechchannel  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Most newer thermostats are around .7 degrees but I would set it for a higher swing then that. They are concerned with comfort more than efficiency with the .7 and .8 setting so if you are still comfortable and able to, you could set it for 1.2 or another setting depending on that type of stat.

    I have a Honeywell RTH7560E1001 for our Heat pump & hydro coil from boiler. When it calls for heat , the heat pump reversing valve works properly and then after a short time it turns on the relay for the taco zone circulator pump. But the heat pump seems to been supplying heat. I'm new to AC heat pumps. Will dual heat at the same time cause the heat pump to trip on the high temp side or is this a normal setup?

    • @brianweir5988
      @brianweir5988 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      I forgot to mention , the hydro coil is downstream of the air handler coil. Am I incorrect to believe it won't affect the air handler coil and cause it to possibly to trip the heat pump on the high side ?

      On AC or heat setting? You should get ahold of the manufacturer and tell them. If the tech can't figure that out on one trip, you have a very uneducated tech.
