I have a SimpleComfort 2200 thermostat. It suddenly starting showing "set 45" The actual room temp was 75. I inserted fresh batteries and I still could not reset it. Someone said it had a reset button inside but it does not as I can see. I fooled around with it and it finallly reset saying room temp 75. I set it to cut off at 78. It worked fine and then all day read the correct temp. Now the next day I looked at it and it reads 45 again. The unit is set for heat but is not needing any at this time so of course it won't come on. Do I need a new one or is there something I can do so it will work all the time. I'm in Florida but it is subject to get cold here at times.:confused:

Sometimes thermostats can act crazy. If powering down doesn't cure it, you should probably just replace it.

The thermostat is disposable so dispose of it man, get yourself a nice honeywell or something.
