There is either a problem with the downstairs thermostat, or the wiring from that thermostat to the unit. First check the batteries in the thermostat. Yes the digital ones have batteries. :-) Next, if that doesn;t fix it, try switching your two thermostats. Be careful to wire them exactly as they were before. If your heat now works downstairs and not upstairs, replace the thermostat. If the problem remains unchanged and you still have heat up and not down - check your thermostat wiring. The voltage is low so a simple voltmeter can be used to confirm continuity from the end where it goes into the furnace to the end where it connects to the thermostat. If the wire checks out and the problem is not the thermostat, then call a licnesed professinal - youhave bigger problems.
What else can I help you with?
At what temperature should you keep your downstairs air to help cool the upstairs or does the downstairs air temperature have any effect on the upstairs if you have two central units?
I have two separate systems, one up and one down. The downstairs unit does nothing to cool the upstairs. It is probably because cold (heavy) air sinks and hot (light) air rises. To have any effect on the upstairs, you would need a very well insulated house with few windows, and you would have to make it extremely cool downstairs. Inversely, you can use your upstairs system to help cool your downstairs, for the reasons explained above. Since hot air rises, your upstairs system has a larger cooling capacity than your downstairs unit to take care of the larger demand.

This approach allows the warm air to naturally rise, helping to warm the upstairs more gradually while maintaining comfort throughout her two-story home. By focusing on one unit, she can also save on heating costs and reduce wear on the upstairs system.

Your thermostat is downstairs and the upstairs is hot How can you cool the upstairs?
This is just one possibility. This is what I did. We have a bi-level house and the thermostat was down stairs like yours is. What I did was move the thermostat upstairs. I was lucky though cause I was able to access the top floor through a closet down stairs and then ran it up the wall. Then the down stairs was freezing at first so what I did was close the down stairs vents some and it cools the upstairs great now. The down stairs is definitely cooler now, but the the upstairs is tons better. Hope this helps. Good luck.
