Thermostat Wiring
Вставка
- Опубліковано 3 жов 2024
- Today I want to talk about how simple a thermostat really is how the common and hot wire goes to a transformer, how you tie the white wire for the heat strip, connect the green wire which controls the indoor blower and the yellow wire (compressor) directly with each other from the thermostat in the event you have a an emergency where your thermostat goes bad, you can use the system in the heating cycle by tying the red wire, the yellow wire and the green wire together in an emergency situation or if the outdoor heat pump is not working you can tie together the white wire, the green wire, and the red wire. In the summertime for cooling you would tie the yellow wire, the red wire, and the Green wire together. If you have any questions please visit our website or check out our other videos on this and many other HVAC topics.
Thanks for watching!

You are not lying about that!!!!
What color does the green wire go to on an ac unit
Thank you so much for this video!I'm a widowed woman and my digital thermostat went bad and I could not figure out how to get my furnace to blow heat..until I watched your video.Thank you so so much,truly appreciate you makin' this.
This guy is the best! He explains EVERYTHING. He's the first one I've found that goes through trouble shooting. Glad to have him out there.
You're right! It's not complicated! I just needed it explained clearly! Thank you so much - first time home owner, strapped for cash, and now the master of my HVAC system!
You are very sincere gentleman.
You love to help from bottom of your heart
All respect to you!!
Thank you, so much! I changed the thermostat 2 months ago and realized that I hadn’t connected the heat element wire! I took pictures of my old thermostat and the”W” was hidden; I assumed it was the ground a wire that I didn’t need! It’s been cold this week and if it weren’t for your video , I would’ve called a someone to check our unit because the fan was working but no heat! 🙏🏼 thank you! My home is warm and cozy
Amazing! I love folks that share their expertise and speak my language!
He does a good job of explaining the details that many other videos did not share. It is easy to troubleshoot.
One of the best videos on HVAC controls.
When you gain experience over the years you becomes the godfather in what you doing,this is what the video said beside the wiring. thanks and thumbs up..
Beautiful
I just want to stop by and say thank you. I'm doing a self install on a Goodman 4 ton Package unit with a new wifi thermostat. The control board told me everything was working properly but the fan would not engage. So I followed your direction (testing) and sure enough it was a bad brand new thermostat..Now I get $100 back on the return and paid $27 for a different non wifi thermostat. Once again thank you..
Great Video. It is nice to know that so many viewers picked up on the "Missing Orange Wire" in the cooling section. I take it that most unit's reversing valves come in the "Heat Position." Just trying to learn a little bit about the workings of a heat/cooling pump. FR
That is what I am looking for. He used the same wires for heat pump and Cool
David Jones may be a tradesman, but he is being a professional here. Thank you for sharing your knowledge. It really is very simple. I almost hired a service tech for an $85 service call (and that is cheap nationally).
Thank you! I’ve been looking for these simple answers for 2 weeks now! So glad someone finally explained how it all works in a way that makes sense to people that are not HVAC trained.
This is a great video that demystifies what even some HVAC technicians consider "complicated.
Man I wish I had found this channel years ago. My hat goes out to you David.
I was freezing cold in my house trying to get my thermostat to work. This video got my thermostat working again! Thanks for educating me!
Thank you you saved my butt, Trying to find a HVAC technician on Memorial Day weekend Was impossible or too expensive A little trick to hotwire for cool Save me my family from a hot weekend
You are a god sent❤️ I understand all of this so much better because of you.
I am 3 months in to the a.c trade learning to become better at my job thank you so much I will learn and apply this thank you Mr jones
Thank you So much was 102 today and very hot in my home $120.00 for a new Thermostate your video helped me out Thank you for caring to share. Hot California
thank you
Thank you mr. Jones at this moment I am having problems and I think it's my thermostat. Thank you for helping God bless
Thanks! for showing the actual part the wire goes to...Very Educational.
Thank you Sir for video. I fixed my thermostat watching this video. Your a great service to your fellow man.
Omgosh I super appreciate you taking the time to explain all of the wires and processes!
Great teacher May God bless you because I’m blessed for what I learned today
Best vid I have seen. Wish you had mentioned Rheem and Ruud and where to connect reversing valve wire (normally orange) since their reversing valve works backwards from other mfg. In other mfg heat pumps it energizes the reversing valve in the cooling mode but with Rheem and Ruud it energizes the reversing valve in the heating mode.
Wonderful video, in fact the best video. Thank you David for being thorough in your presentation.
Very helpful Thank you So much was 95 today and very hot in my home After connecting the 3 wires (R, Y, G) the system finally works
The way you explain is so awesome. Love all the pieces to the pie being shown
just to let you know nobody explains it so well as you do. you are a great teacher.
thank you so much I'm struggling to understand this wiring.
Thank you so much its 16 degrees here and my thermostat went out yesterday. Got the heater going thanks to you.!
Thank you . I am from North Africa and I am learning from guys like in order to enhance my troubleshooting skills .
stay with it, great trade
I love this guy! "It's not rocket science." - what a good message which says "you can do it too!"
The best video for hvac technicians
THANK YOU MR DAVID !!!!! my ac just blew up n im changing to a heat pump n i need more than 4 wires so i have to start over n this will help bigtime!!!!!!!!!
Thank you David, your instruction got my gas heat to work, manually, and it is heating my house.
I connected the Red, Green and White and the furnace went on, great. Thank you again.
I have to replace my 35 years old Programmable Robertshaw analog thermostat (battery operated quartz movement).
Great video. The only 1 I could find that explained the orange wire and the "O" on the mounting plate. Thanks
Thanks for this amazing video and instructions I followed your instructions installed my Honeywell smart thermostat this morning no issues works great thanks for your help God bless you
I just switched out my Thermostat. You should have mentioned to turn off the breaker first, I did it HOT but no worries. Thanks for the video it helped and yes we do need more young people in this field. I do basic home maintenance but no HVAC work and I am always working and turning down jobs (money)
Great video! None of Honeywell's documentation explained what letters are what on the back of their thermostat. This video helped me out greatly, thank you.
Best straight forward video I have seen to date. Thank you sir
Thanks for being so kind in sharing this. I greatly appreciate it.
Thank you for making it so easy for everyone to understand.
Very Good teacher, glad I meet you!

March 2024.
Thank you so much for this information. You just saved me some money.
David, thank you so very much for those simple trouble shooting checks. If I was to live in Florida you will certainly be the person I will call for HVAC help or replacement. I appreciate your honesty Sir, blessings from Texas.
Excellent video! Thank you for dumbing it down for idiots like me!
best block instruction on wiring a thermostat and how it works, thanks
Somehow, yer video is upside down, but was able to watch sideways. Lol. Thanks for doing this. Helps a lot. May God bless you for helping others.
Excellent work and would say very detailed explanation for DIY home owners. Can see real honesty..... David thanks for saving us from crook technician s
Fix!! My yellow wire was disconnected.💪thanks!!!
I need to watch this video 4 times a year
Thank you so much. This video help me so much. Is just simple and I didn’t have to read all the instructions.
To the point ,sir , fantastic tech service to the core !!!! thanks
Thanks man good description and examples!!
Thanks for the video. And hello to SW Florida from an old Naples boy. : )
Thank you Sir you are amazing the way you break everything down so it's understandable
Love it Thanks alot
This is what I do for a living, although I know this already this is the best video I've seen.. Great job..
Yeah but if you're going to operate cold mode how can you tie in the same three wires that operates heat wouldn't you have to throw Orange in there to flip the reversing valve
I broke my heat pump. 😢. Never had a heat pump and in first winter the outdoor unit was running and running so I turned it to emergency heat and when weather improved no compressor running on heat or cold , had a lock compressor 2000 D to get fixed. I wish I had watched this before. THANKS for sharing your knowledge.
This is one of the best videos I've seen a long time excellent excellent video thank you
Great information. I was able to rule out my thermostat as the problem. Tied the wires together to make my cooling system fire on and was able to determine that it was the main capacitor for my AC unit. $15 fix.
David you are amazing, sharing your knowledge and putting out quality vids.
Very helpful. Will watch over and over till its branded in my mind. Thank you sir.
Thank you so much for making it so clear for us DIY guy.
Very good job explaining the wires.
Great job of explaining everything. Easy to follow your instructions
Top notch presentation. I feel like you are in my corner. Thank you much.
Thank you my brother. Please live long

GREAT job with simple instructions THANK YOU
Good demo. Good advice. Very good on taking the picture of the wires. Thank you Sir.
Thank you David to share how thermostat work's
Thank you so much for this! This was perfect!
Beautiful, crystal clear, very useful explanation, many many thanks and well done
Thank you Davi Jones so much good help and good video
Great video. I love how you broke it all down and had everything laid out so we can visualize what the different wires actually do
David missed his calling. He should have been a school teacher. Lol excellent video.
Many thanks! Very good explanation!

great video i watch all your videos ty you explain very well i am a jr technician i am doing this about a year now
Thank you, I appreciate it
THANKS I NEED FOLKS LIKE YOU TO KEEP ME MOVTIVATED
I APPRECIATE YOU
Good job thanks love you videos keep them coming
Thanks Dave you made the understanding very easy.
Great, I changed my thermostat very easily referring to this simple guideline, thanks David
The lesson was so good I didn’t realize it was upside down until the end 😂
GREAT Video! I don't know if someone else said this! HOWEVER, at 6:19 "For Cooling" IF the system has a "Reversing Valve" Wire Color Orange (labeled "O") you need to add that wire also together with the "Yellow, Green, and Red" If not the system will work but blow out warm air due to the "Reversing Valve" not activating. So for "COOLING" twist together the "Yellow, Green, Orange and Red".
Your an idiot
Dude u r awesome at teaching I bet you could teach anything
