honeywell thermostat lcd display not working free sample

Based on my experience and research, I decided to compile a list of common go-to fixes that you should try if you find that your Honeywell Device is not working as it should.

So, how do you fix the no-display issue on your Honeywell Thermostat even after you have replaced the batteries? First, check the power, wiring, and reset the thermostat.

Re-insert the batteries in the correct orientation; once you have inserted them successfully, your thermostat should start displaying information after a brief pause.

Keep in mind that while sometimes the thermostat issues can be fixed, in other cases, you may want to consider replacing your thermostat or perhaps upgrading to a newer version.

Ensure proper maintenance of the device, as Honeywell’s Limited Warranty does not cover products that have been damaged due to negligence, such as failure to follow a regular cleaning schedule.

If the thermostat is battery powered, check/replace your batteries. If the device is common wired, try and power it up with batteries. If that fails to power up the thermostat, you may need to involve a technician. If batteries do power up your common wired thermostat, check your breakers, furnace power switch, furnace door kill switch to insure your system is powered. If your system is fine, and the thermostat only works on batteries, you may need to involve a technician.

We give a simple sequence of steps in the order that is most likely to succeed, starting right at the wall or room thermostat and continuing through making sure there is electrical power and fuel.

Check that the thermostat has power: if your thermostat is a programmable model or has an LCD or electronic display and the display is blank (red arrow in our photos) then the thermostat has no power - its main power source is off and its backup batteries are dead..

But turning the thermostat UP well above room temperature should turn the heating system on. Thermostats are usually powered by a low-voltage system wired from a transformer near or right on the heater.

If the thermostat has no power, check that its wires are connected, intact and that power is turned on at the heating system since power off there will often also turn off the transformer that powers the thermostat. Then

Check that the Heating Thermostat is set to "HEAT (on)". If a room thermostat is in the OFF position or is set to a temperature that does not call for heating (or cooling) then the heating or cooling system is just not going to run.

See FAN AUTO ON THERMOSTAT SWITCH for details about what turns the blower fan on and off on forced warm air heating systems or on air conditioning systems.

If the set temperature is down lower than room temperature and the thermostat is in HOLD or STAND-BY mode (a feature present on most electronic thermostats) the device will not turn on heat until room temperature is below that HOLD number

Check that that the set temperature is at least 5 degrees above the room temperature. Later you can set the temperature lower if needed. of how to set all types of room thermostats are

Watch out: on some heating or cooling thermostats like the one shown at left, the device is so simple that the meaning of the temperature shown in the display may confuse you.

Left untouched and in HEAT mode, and controlling just a hot water heating boiler in this installation, the 67 degrees shown on the thermostat is the present room temperature.

Just pressing either the "down" button (blue arrow pointing down in the photo above) or the "up" button (red arrow pointing up in both photos) will change the display to show me the present SET temperature.

Notice that the SET temperature is all the way down to 56 degrees? This thermostat has been told "don"t turn on the heat until temperature in this room drops below 54F! No wonder the heat was not running. The room was already much warmer than that.

If the thermostat does not cause the heating (or cooling) system to run when it should, there could be any of a number of problems (as we outline here) but among them you may need to check the thermostat itself or its wiring - starting

Check that the heating system is now running. If it is not, Check that electrical power to the heating system is turned on and for oil or LP gas check that there is fuel in the tank.

If you are confident that the no-heat problem is not due to electrical power having been turned off and not due to a thermostat not properly set, then you"ll want to choose a no-heat diagnostic procedure depending on the type of heating system your building uses - listed just below.

Did not light on the first try, but eventually, after about 20 minutes of cycling, it did light. I think I"m going to by the entire unit and replace and see if it lights more regularly after that. will call supply house tomorrow morning to make sure I get the right unit.

2. Remove any white oxides accumulated on the flame sense rods using steel wool. If the flame sense rods cannot be cleaned satisfactorily, replace flame sense assembly with a new one.

- this will not, of course, necessarily be your boiler - so look for the equivalent instructions in your own boiler manual or if you don"t have the manual see or web page giving boiler manuals

A gas boiler that does not use a continuous or standing pilot indeed is turned on by an igniter, but generally there will still be a flame-proving thermocouple needed for safety.

The thermocouple in this case is not confirming that a pilot is lit, rather it is confirming that the full burner flame ignites when the gas valve opens. An example thermocouple for an intermittent burner on a Weil McLain gas boiler is shown below.

Notice the aluminum tube and brass ferrule and tip? That connects to the gas valve. If that sensor has failed the burner won"t stay on because the sensor will shut the gas valve.

I am sure this is the box that controls the starting of the furnace once the thermostat drops to the appropriate temperature, I just don"t know the "technical" name for it. It looks like a simple replacement, I just don"t know what to call it when searching for one.

Ask your heating service company to look again; a bad room or wall thermostat - mounted in the rooms you occupy, not at the oil burner - would not have the slightest idea that somebody was tapping on the furnace controls.

I have a Gemini Oil fired forced air furnace about 20 years old. There is a small box on the back of the furnace about 1 1/2 inches wide, 1 1/2 inches thick and about 6 inches long. The 2 wires from my thermostat connect to the bottom of the box.

Lately, about half of the time you want the furnace to come on you need to tap this box with your finger and the furnace usually starts right away and seems to work fine. Had our oil provider in to look at it, they cleaned the furnace and said the problem was the thermostat, put on a new thermostat and still have the issue.

I bought a Honeywell TH8320ZW thermostat to work with my Samsung SmartThings hub. After getting it turned on, the top of the screen would almost instantly say “Communication failed”. I would try to add it to the Z-wave network (just like it says in the manual) and it would do one of two things: 1) say “Adding to Network” but it would never do anything for a few minutes, or 2) almost instantly say “Action Failed”.

The problem is this: the Z-wave component of the circuit board is not properly connected to the main circuit board. The two are connected by four thin pins, and the housing is spacious enough that they easily become disconnected. To reconnect them, open the housing by peeling off the front housing (the one around the touchscreen), it should snap off, and this will expose the screen casing. There are two tabs on the sides of it to push back, then the whole thing can come loose. You can remove the main circuitboard now, and then you’ll see the Z-wave board just underneath (still in the housing). Try to now push them back together (being very careful to align it properly). You can put the thermostat back on the wall without the front casing on, and try to set it up again and see if it will connect to your Z-wave hub now. This did the trick for me.
