Please help. I have installed a new LUX TX9000TS thermostat but the heat does not kick on at all. I have propane heat and two heating zones in our home. Here are some pictures. . . don't know where things went wrong. .

Thank you for responding.

Red wire to R. White wire to Rh and a jumper wire from Rc to Rh.

I have two heat zones in the house. This may or may not be an issue but I am using two different thermostats in the house. The t-stat in zone 1 is the LUX and the t-stat in zone 2is a Hunter.

Leave the jumper for rh-rc, wire the red wire to rh and the white wire to W. This should take care of your problem.

Sorry Skip I misspoke. . . the white wire is in W and the red is in Rh, and the jumper wire runs from Rc to Rh.
