I'm working at a non-profit in New York City.
Recently I purchased three Honeywell T8624D's to replace our Honeywell T874D's. Then we'll have programmed on and off times and I won't have to go into each mechanical rooms to tend to the units.
The wiring looks very straightforward and I tried to install two of them today. However, after installing them and throwing the breaker, the new thermostat display didn't show anything at all- no LCD.
I reinstalled the old thermostat and the system started right up without a problem.
Our system is a 2 cycle cooling and 1 cycle heating.
Wiring on old and new
W1--W1 G--G Rc--Rc Rh--R Y1--Y1 Y2--Y2
Rc and Rh are bridged on the old thermostat, so I bridged them on the new thermostat.
Then I tried it once without the bridging. Nothing happened still.
Any opinions, questions, help you can offer would be very appreciated.
Tom

I belive that thermostat requires a common... Does it have a C terminal?

Thank you for replying to this problem. I appreciate it.
Yes, the thermostat does have a "C" terminal.
Do you have any advice on how I should get a 24v common to the thermostat?
Thank you.

You need to run a wire from the furnace to the thermostat.
