You would need a technician or call Honeywell's tech support.
There are dip switches on the back of the thermostat that must be adjusted. Refer to page 3 of the installation manual for more information.
Icon to left of temp should display flame in heat mode, or snowflake in cooling mode. If system not working dip switches or wiring could be incorrect for type of system. See attached instructions.
What you see is probably a small flashing snowflake which means if a call for cooling is made before the compressor has been off for five minutes, or if a power interruption occurs while the compressor is running, the thermostat will go into a five-minute delay to protect the compressor. The snowflake will flash during this delay. (A steady snowflake is normal cooling cycle) This can happen if you turn the thermostat up ( turning off the a/c), than turning it back down to soon (turning on the a/c). Foot note: If the five minute delay isn't enough, this can cause the a/c compressor to "lock up" if it hasn't had time to "decompress", and seems to be running but not cooling. This is also common during quick power outages or "brown outs". If this is the case, shut off the a/c unit via the breaker for about 15 minutes than turn it back on. Manual can be found here if this is your model? : copy/ paste: http://customer.honeywell.com/Honeywell/getliterature.axd?LiteratureID=69-1679ES.pdf Original Message-----
If you have the switch set to COOL, and everything is fine, a "snowflake" should be ON steady in the upper left corner. The manual says, "If a call for cooling is made before the compressor has been off for five minutes, or if a power interruption occurs while the compressor is running, the thermostat will go into a five minute delay to protect the compressor. The snowflake ] will flash during the delay." Based on that - if your problem lasts longer than 5 minutes - I would check that all wires in the system are attached securely. You can get a manual here: http://customer.honeywell.com/techlit/pdf/PackedLit/69-1679ES.pdf Good Luck! Ralph.
The T8775 does not require a common wire, as it has a power-robbing design. You must have a minimum of 20 vac that is always available at the subbase.
I feel this is up to the buyer in where he lives as for me in Iowa yes it does need both sides
You can switch between cool, heat, and off by using the system switch located on the upper left of the unit.
Taco valves should work with a resistor bar installed.
The location of where the thermostat is mounted (by a window for example) could be causing the discrepancy between the actual room temperature and what the thermostat is reading. If location of the thermostat is not an issue, the thermostat itself may be defective.
Yes, you can use this unit just for heating applications.
The T8775C1005 is a digital, non-programmable 1Heat/1Cool thermostat only and is powered through the system heating controls. There is no regulator that comes with this specific thermostat, so it cannot be the reason why you are having this issue.
