Yes. Those would be the standard color codes. I noticed that you used question marks. Did you forget to write down your existing Terminal = Color combination?
The color used for common varies and should be verified at your air handler if you are uncertain.
C = blue?
G = green
Y = yellow
O/B = orange
Rc & R = red (use provided jumper)
Aux & E = white (use a jumper wire)

You must also configure this stat for your system.
Set option 170 to 7 and option 190 to 0.

How do you access this? I have the tstat wired as shown but heat cuts on when regardless of setting.

Thank you. I did not forget to label but this is my second programmable, I was using a hunter. I had originally wired this in the winter, heat worked fine. However, the I went to use the ac and I had issues (either not working or blowing hot air). Turns out I had the tstat configured wrong. I have been trying to use/confirm the settings you just recommended. I do see I need an additional jumper between aux and e. I also have a new issue, air handler fan won't turn on (unit outside does) for ac or heat. That just started happening so I wanted to confirm the settings of the tstat and wiring. I had similar issues a few years ago w/the fan. Trying to dig up my bill, it was either the relay or some bearings started to fail.

All of this being said, I appreciated your response. This is way out of my league and I am just trying to take a stab at the first line and educate myself before calling in the techs.

Thanks
