Thank you. As a homeowner, I was trying to figure out what actually triggered the Y2 wire on my thermostat. Your explanation was exactly what I needed. Great job!
Hi Mike, your videos are very informative. You are doing a fantastic job. Keep up the good work. No one does it like you do. Mike can you do a video on wiring a Goodman heat pump and a air handler model # GSZV904810-AMVE48DP1400 with a Goodman thermostat?
Depends on the system. Most will only run at a single stage without Y2 connected, but there are some systems where the control board itself can monitor temps through sensors and activate two stage cooling independently without the need of a 2-stage thermostat. So unless there are temp sensors located in your ductwork, for example, or sensors monitoring temp inputs like minisplit ductless systems have, it will likely only run as a single stage system without the Y2 hookup.
I recently had a Trane 2-Stage heat pump and Trane 2-Stage furnace installed. They are run thru a Honeywell HZ322 TrueZONE® to two Sensi Smart Thermostats (upper and lower zone). Both thermostats are wired with only RC, O/B, Y, G and W/E. My installer says both pieces of equipment "change stages automatically" and there is no need for the other connections. It was over 100F here and even though I could see stage changes on my HZ322, I could not hear any changes on the heat pump, nor did the unit demand more electricity. I don't believe my system is wired to work correctly. Suggestions?
@@boomguy44 There should be wires connected to the DATS terminals on the zoning board which lead to a temp sensor on the supply air duct. If there is, check the board menu to make sure DATS is active/on.
@@boomguy44 There is a COOL 2 indicator light on the zone board. Does it come on steady at all when the stat is several degrees above set point or does it blink?
Wiring at the control board will be the same. There's a link to another HP wiring video I made in the description that goes into detail on wiring up auxiliary heat and defrost cycles. It uses heat strips as an example but it will be the same wiring for the furnace.
Those are thermostat terminals. The schematic makes it seem like the blocks to the left and right are separate components, but they are all thermostat terminals from a single thermostat.

Mike, the color highlighting makes it so much easier to follow and understand. Great teaching aid.
Yup. it helps a lot of people. Wish I had something like it when I was learning.
Great video Mike. Thank you for the knowledge.
As always an excellent video well produced. Thank you.
Thanks for the info I was lost on the field 🙏
Great info.,Mike. Thank you.
Where I can connect my fresh air low bolts damper
Hi Mike, your videos are very informative. You are doing a fantastic job. Keep up the good work. No one does it like you do.
Mike can you do a video on wiring a Goodman heat pump and a air handler model # GSZV904810-AMVE48DP1400 with a Goodman thermostat?
This video will cover all of the control wiring for that: th-cam.com/video/F88Y9NkvtQw/w-d-xo.html
I need to know where I can connect my fresh air damper and my flow switch
Great Video it helped me.
Hey Mike, Can you run me through wiring a goodman 2 stage condenser with a ecobee thermostat?
If i do not have a y2 connected to my thermostat, is it not gonna run 2-stage?
Depends on the system. Most will only run at a single stage without Y2 connected, but there are some systems where the control board itself can monitor temps through sensors and activate two stage cooling independently without the need of a 2-stage thermostat.

I'm a student thank you for making the video
Welcome
The only thermostat not recommended with Bosch the Nest
Excellent video !
Thank you very much!

Are there outdoor and supply temp sensors wired in?
@@JerseyMikeHVAC In-so-far-as-I-know, yes. The old thermostat actually showed the outside temp, while the new one does not.
@@boomguy44 There should be wires connected to the DATS terminals on the zoning board which lead to a temp sensor on the supply air duct. If there is, check the board menu to make sure DATS is active/on.
@@JerseyMikeHVAC I have a red and a white wire connected to DATS - it appears DATS is set to 45F

What about wiring up to a gas furnace. I have one to do in three days. Its a goodman 80% furnace and heatpump
Wiring at the control board will be the same. There's a link to another HP wiring video I made in the description that goes into detail on wiring up auxiliary heat and defrost cycles. It uses heat strips as an example but it will be the same wiring for the furnace.
@@JerseyMikeHVAC The control board doesn't have an O terminal Just, y1 y2 w1 w2
@@wd8557 splice the two O wires together with a wirenut in the furnace. Control board doesn't need the O signal.
@@JerseyMikeHVAC Worked out great, thanks a million.
Good
What is that on the ride side with the e/ c/ aux terminal??
Those are thermostat terminals. The schematic makes it seem like the blocks to the left and right are separate components, but they are all thermostat terminals from a single thermostat.
@@JerseyMikeHVAC thank you!
Y terminal is for compressor not the outdoor unit
Compressor via contactor which also activates the fan motor.
