- Bypass any thermostat if it has a problem or if you think it’s the problem for emergencies or troubleshooting @ you note most thermostats used 24v ac harmless however there’s some that uses high voltage,. For cooling bypass connect or twist R.Y.G, together for heating bypass connect or twist R/RH,W,G together for fan bypass R,G

This video is amazing, he goes into full details and really has been a huge help for me. Talks about pros and cons and exactly what needs to be done. Fabulous job!
Thank you for stopping by
Same thoughts
Thank you 😊
Hotels are trying to get slick with these new thermostats and with limiting the hot and cold air. This video here is like the ultimate hack for any of them and I thank you good sir!!!
Thank you sir, you are the only who mentioned the danger of bypassing R to C. After all these years, now I know what C meant with the analogy of the battery you used.
Thank you! My old house has central heating but no AC and a very stupid analog dial thermostat with no separate fan control. With this video I figured out I could hook up the dangling green wire to the red and have the fan on constantly to recirculate air in the summer. This way my wall AC units act more like central air, which is a godsend for my hot upper floor during this heat wave. I will likely sleep much better tonight thanks to you.
Excellent education. A much needed lesson. TY!
Glad it was helpful!
This video was very helpful. Thank you, sir
Very informative. Thank you.
Thanks for watching
I appreciate this video. I have an intermittent problem with my system. The compressor fires up and then an overpressure switch shuts it down. The fan never runs. I have been able to switch the fan to the on position and when it gets around to starting I switch the system on heat and leave the fan running all the time. I called the repair guy and when he arrived everything worked properly. I paid $95 for a social visit.
It failed twice today, I called the guy and before he could get here it started working again. Next time I have the issue I can try to start the fan with a jumper. If it starts, that would indicate a thermostat problem. If it fails to start, then it is a fan issue. I can probably pick up a thermostat cheaper than I can call out a guy.
Which fan are we talking about?
@@D2DNYAC
The air handler squirrel cage fan.
One of the best videos on CZcams, great explanation

My guy!!! I've been searching for this answer everywhere. Thank you for the clarity. However you were so close to complete but left one piece of info out that I need. If we're dying in a hot house because of a dead thermostat and need both cooling stages, Do I twist R+G+Y2 together or R+G+Y+Y2? And how long can I leave them twisted and running?
Great 👍 question 🙂 2 stages = y/y1 + y2 + G + R and you can leave them for as long as you want however if the system is cooling properly the space will supper cold 🥶 and you can potentially cause system freeze ups . So I recommend run it like this temporarily initial space is cool and repeat as needed!
@@D2DNYAC Hmmm. That doesn't work. We get a periodic click as though it's trying but nothing else. If we remove the Y2 it kicks stage 1 on as expected. I suppose we can try doing y2 without y but I'm worried that too experimental. Don't want to damage anything. Is it possible that our furnace is different and only uses either y or y2 on but not both at the same time?
@brian Christensen no, either there's a time delay or something is wrong with stage 2
TY Bro

My thermostat went bad, got me a T3 and followed your instructions. I live in Florida and the set temperature is reached but the unit keeps on running long after, I have to manually set it an extra degree for it to do so.
It doesn’t seem like there’s a real issue here often time thermostats will do this anticipating the load. Say you are set to cool 70 and it took a long time for temperatures to come down to 70 , behind the scenes it could be seeing 70.8
@@D2DNYAC I have to set to 75-76 for it to cycle, any lower and it just keeps on running. Funny thing is my old Emerson thermostat had to be at no more than 73 to feel comfortable, anything higher would've felt too warm. I'm baffled by this
I have a straight air condenser and a heat pump air handle they are both rheem ruud, the thermostat is honeywel. Id like to run my heat strips on heat instead of emergency heat. How can I do that? Switch some wires around?

Hi there, really liked your video & hoping u can help me here. I have a 20yr old Yorx Single stage furnace that 2 different HVAC guys are more or less clueless/guessing on what part to change next. Basically, it now comes down to the Control Board or a Thermostat. We had bought a Programmable thermo but 2yrs ago we had nothing but problems calling for heat, replacing less expensive parts, cleaning, etc. We now bought a Honeywell Non-Programmable RTH5160D1003 and the HVAC guy installed it and nothing happened by the furnace coming on . Note he left the job discussed. A new HVAC guy came over and put in the "OLD" Programmable Thermo back in and the furnace came back on but note that somewhere in the furnace is other issues! Do you think he just didn't program the New Non-Programmable thermo the right way or it is just a dud? Note: He did have to look @ the manual but didn't look at the most important pages in it (up to pg 14) . We definitely want to use the Non-Programmable thermo for several reasons if it actually works! As I was told that our furnace is a Stage 1 non-efficiency. We also have a Central A/C unit outside on the ground but we definitely don't want to use it !!! (period) On your wires u show a BLACK wire but we don't have that. Red, Green, White & Yellow. We just want to use a simple thermo to control the "HEAT" from the thermo/furnace. Hoping you could give me some advice on these issues. Thx much for your time and knowledge.
@Todd Rhine where are you located?
It’s hard to say if the new thermostat is a dud! This thermostat will work with a 1 heat 1 cool conventional system out the box, no adjustments needed, plug and play of wired correctly.
When the heating failed! What symptoms does the furnace gives?
@@D2DNYAC Well, for right now whatever the HVAC guy did to the furnace yesterday it has been working so far. He was next to it watching/listening to it for quite awhile also! But my concern now and again is why the non-programmable thermostat wasn't doing its job as you say no adjustments needed, plug and play. I believe the HVAC guy wired it right and it had brand new Energizer Ultimate Lithium batteries installed. All digital readings showed up correctly also. Like I also stated I have a 4-wire system to the thermostat. Red, Green, White & Yellow. I still would like to switch out the thermostats to the T2 Non-Programmable RTH5160D1003 if it's possible. What does the yellow & white wire on my unit used for, also? Thx much for your time. I did subscribe & thumbs up to your video.
I bypassed “NEW” thermostat on the heat side (G,W,R), and it worked fine. It blew hot air, and then within 15 minutes, fan was blowing cool again. Seems to be an intermittent issue. I have a new filter. Single stage gas furnace. Can’t figure it out. Fan doesn’t stop running unless I turn off breaker.
Did you remove G? G is for fan!
@@D2DNYAC Connected G, W, & R. Done testing and reconnected Honeywell. Definitely not a thermostat issue.
hey thanks for the video that really helped me out a lot I'm not going to lie my wife got pissed off at me and took the thermostat so I wouldn't have no AC but thanks to you I'm sleeping good tonight thanks again LOL
Ha ha 😄 thanks for watching glad to help
Having a hard time understanding this but I'll have to watch again. I'm in an apt bldg, we have a digital Samsung thermostat on our wall inside the apt. When we first moved in we were able to get it down to 65 degrees in the Summer. Then at the end of the summer management reset something & I was no longer able to program it any lower than 68 (which in here gets VERY hot in the dead of summer). If I press the arrow to go down it sends up a message saying it's "put of range". I have no idea if it's a wifi system or not, I know the model # is MWR-WG00UN, they have large central air hvac units outside....been trying to find a hack to get into this system so that come next summer I can get it below 68 but have yet to figure this Samsung thing out. I suspect they have some kind of master remote or something where they can control the temp. They originally told me going below 65 would freeze everything, a few weeks later then said anything below 68 would freeze everything, they kept changing the number every week. I pay for the electric & I pay the hvac bill both separately , I really need to control the temp in here come the summer.
@Anglynn74 looks like you are on a Samsung DVMS system which may be shared with others and these systems can be connected and controlled y a centralized controller thus whomever ever has access to the centralized controller has the ability to limit and override any local thermostat on the this system
That is true but the unit would have to be working for 2 days with no pause and no heat escaping the house to freeze.
@@DJV94022 thank you, that's pretty much what I thought. Since my original post I told the apt manager I would be getting a mobile ac unit which has a tube that vents out the window. I was told we're not allowed to have those. I have a lot of windows but I'm only able to open some of them, 3 of them don't open, they literally have no mechanism to open up. I've been able to finally get them to allow me to have the ability to go down to 65 if needed. It has yet to freeze anything up as I suspected. The bedrooms do not have AC but the rest of the place is now at least somewhat cooler
do these spring terminal boards lose conductivity after a time? Im having issues with my fan not turning on and the jumper wire didnt work but removing the wires and touching them works.
Possible however in my experience unlikely. Make sure the wires is stripped properly
How about if you have a heat pump? For cooling it would be the same . Y-G-R together? Or do i add the blue for the reverse valve?
Depends on what part of the world you're in
In New York yes ygro together
When youre hacking these systems, dont mess with common the common is only to make the screen light up on a tstat.. but yes it would be R-G-Y (if its a compressor only that does cooling only)
Heat pump is R-G-Y-O (lennox carrier trane goodman)rheem and rue you dont touch orange
question for you. I have already 2 T6 replaced because they went bad. so, that's the 1st question. isn't Honeywell a mega super technology company to create since a light switch up to NASA equipment for the thermostat to go bad (2) in less than 6 months? is that common that 2 T6s go bad so close to each other because they are not cheap at all! I'm so disappointed with this product. and 2 question is. when this went bad the AC tech said it was just the thermostat for AC cooling since it was hot summer in Florida, it got replaced and booom! it worked! so, he said that the thermostat was not doing something to make the reversible valve work and it got stuck in the heat mode. so... if this is true, how the valve get stuck if I only see this on and off wires which in this case would be the red and yellow and green to power the Ac and the fan respectively. it looks cool how the thermostat is just a multi on-off switch which make life simple but at the same time there's no control for this valve according to the wiring. just live/hot wires. just do not make sense having a dedicated wire that makes the reversible valve work, or...the guy was only BS lol. pls explain! thanks
Yes you need a separate wire for reversing valve it should be connected to O/B
Nice! I just moved into a new office building and the property manager is trying to bake me alive. I have a thermostat in my unit, but the property manager controls it. So here is my question: if I do this, will they be able to tell that it’s hacked on their end?
😆 @monica Scott perhaps! if it's a wifi thermostat then they will come looking after they aren't able to communicate with it they will thing something is wrong with the AC or thermostat. If it's not a wifi thermostat unless the land lord happened to be be passing by and noticed he will have no clue,
Is it the same thermostat as in this video?
@@D2DNYAC good to know! Yes, it is controlled by WiFi. Let’s see how long it takes for them to notice … 😂
Has no bearing on a Dometic CCC heat pump thermostat such as in RVs and motorhomes worldwide, so NO - does not bypass ANY cooling/heating thermostat. Also does not have any bearing on mini split thermostats, manual thermostats, and a whole myriad of other styles of thermostats.
hi; i have thermostat of T6373B1239 old model and i will change to T5. how can do it? The heating and cooling system is central, and in the summer season, the chillers are turned into cooling from the central system, and into heating in the winter. So I can't change the cold door to heating and vice versa. According to the above, what is the wiring method from the old model to the new one? thank you
Take a picture of wiring on old and match wire connections to new!
@@D2DNYAC how can send photo through youtube? Have you WhatsApp?
is it possible to replace the thermostate with timer power switch?
so the AC will on and off based on time set
Sure ,,, however all you need is right thermostat and use the schedule feature
I do new construction start up and one day i was not given
a thermostat to install so i had to join all those wires and just told the office to send punchout guy to only install thermostat 😂
Yes but be careful not to create s short by joining R with C you can join everything except C
@@D2DNYAC yeah c was left alone i tried the system first with C being disconnected plus i was told before if R and C touch itll burn the fuse in the air handler
Would this work if your zone board is bad ?
Zo Daddy what zone board?
Good looking out bro, where are you from , you sound West Indian
🇯🇲💯
honeywell th100dv1000 I'm in apartment it only goes to 72 what can I do it's a non programmable bro
he starts on 5:05 thanks got l
Thanks for watching
motion doesnt start until 5 minutes in to the video... i done froze to death!!!
🤣 thanks for watching
Better off running away as fast as you can and never purchasing a Honeywell thermostat. I am so angry about how many times does thermostat has caused me to lose sleep
🤣🤣😂 wow I never Knew a thermostat is capable of that
Jesus Crist man! Get to the point!
😂
