I have this wiring on my old Q674F subbase:

Red to R
Orange to O
Yellow to Y
Green to G
White to W2
Brown to E
Blue to X
Black to S



I just bought a RTH8500 programmable thermostat to replace the old one.. Trying to figure out how to re-connect the new one:

OLD to NEW
R to R
O to O/B
Y to Y
G to G
W2 to AUX
E to E
Not sure...
X to tape it off
S to ...

Thank you very much!

The heat pump is IKCO (also branded KenMore on the outside unit) and the electric furnace is a Thermo Radiant (montreal, canada).
