CHECKOUT

Outdoor Temperature Sensor

(Where Applicable)
Allow the outdoor temperature sensor to soak in the
outdoor air for a minimum of five minutes before taking a
reading. With an accurate thermometer (±1°F [±0.5°C]),
measure the temperature at the sensor location, allowing
time for the thermometer to stabilize before reading. Match
the thermometer reading to the outdoor temperature
display at the thermostat.
• Check that C terminal is connected to the system transformer.
• Check for 24 Vac between C and R terminals.
— If missing 24 Vac:
— check if the circuit breaker is tripped—reset the
circuit breaker.
— check if the system fuse is blown—replace the fuse.
— check if the power switch on the HVAC equipment is
in the Off position—set to the On position.
— check wiring between thermostat and HVAC
equipment—replace any broken wires and tighten
any loose connections.
— If 24 Vac is present, proceed with troubleshooting.
Remove the thermostat from the wallplate for 2 minutes. After
2 minutes, replace the thermostat on the wallplate.
