Best Answer

The best method for a non-professional to use in home thermostat replacement is to compare the old thermostat to the new. There is however, a general color code that is normally used. Red to R, Green to G, Yellow to Y (or Y1), White to W. The question comes with W2, the wire for the 2nd stage of heat, at this stage you may be able to assume that the only one left is W2. If you are left with 2 wires, I would guess Black is common or C, and Brown would be W2. None of this is a sure thing, what really counts is what the other end of the wires are attached to.

Your furnace and air conditioner run at the same time?

Your thermostat or condenser is wired wrong on the control side. Usually there is a terminal inside your furnace that has the same connection colors (Y, W, R, G, C) as your thermostat. It should be connected color to color to the thermostat with the 2 wires from the condenser wired to Y and C.

How do you wire a furnace thermostat?

The thermostat is just a low voltage on-off switch. There should be two small wires (assuming you are replacing an old unit) coming out of the wall. These could be any color combination. Connect one wire to each of the terminal screws inside the thermostat housing. Replace the cover and turn it to the desired setting. The furnace should now hum happily until set temperature is reached The `R` terminal on the stat is for the powered wire from the furnace, the `W` terminal is the power back to the furnace to start it those are the 2 to use. If you have 3 wires the third one goes on the `G` terminal, that is to run the fan only if you have a subbase with fan switching (Auto/On) capability. Usually but not always all 3 of these wires will be color coordinated with their terminals (Red,White & Green).
