Hello,
maybe someone can help me. I have an older Heil split system A/C heat pump.
Tried to install new thermostat from an old manual (mercury) to a digital. I can't get the A/C to come on.
I went to the attic and found these wires connected to the air handler.
Red to R
Blue to C
Yellow to Y
Green to G
Orange to O
White to W1 and W2 (jumped)
I took a picture of the previous thermostat wiring so I would remember how it was hooked up. PROBLEM picture was deleted now I am unsure. All of the above wires were in use at the thermostat the white wire at the thermostat was stripped in two places and connected to two terminals.
there is a optional jumper on the new Honeywell digital thermostat between Y and W1.
I think it is the white wire that is giving me problems.
I have hooked up the following
red to R
Blue to C
Green to G
Yellow to Y
Orange to O
beyond this I am unsure........jumper or no jumper? White Wire where?

I don't know what model of t-stat you got. But a guess as of now.. But, please do post back of what the model of t-stat you got.
Wire-----new t-stat.
Red----R/RC
Blue----C
Yellow--Y
Green--G
Orange--O/B
White----Aux
Do you have an extra wire in the wall?
If you don't then a jumper between Aux and E
