Honeywell RTH230B thermostat: everything works fine, but suddenly the Fan ON function doesn't work. The fan is OK (works on Auto in Heat mode), and I put in new batteries. What's up? John

To test if tstat is bad, remove the face plate. Turn power off and put red and green together and resume power. your blower should run. if it does the tstat is bad

Testimonial: "Thanks Thomas. The problem turned out that I need the jumper wire between the Rc and Rh terminals. When I said the fan On "suddenly" stopped working, I noticed on the tstat a 2007 date, so I must have replaced it."

SOURCE: honeywell RTH230B

Normally, you should have 5 color wires: W-White, Y-Yellow, G-Green, R-Red and C-Blue.

The Blue wire is a common from the transformer on older systems, which is probably hooked to RC terminal.

Try this: Remove the blue wire and jump the RC to RH with the red wire and you will be fine. Blue wire should not be needed with the new thermostat.

This should also be stated in the instruction manual.
Hope this helps.

SOURCE: honeywell rth230b won't shut off heat

Sounds like a relay sticking. Possibly in the thermostat or possibly the furnace relay at the furnace. The next time it happens, unplug the thermostat from the wall. If the furnace still runs then it's the furnace relay.

Hope that helps...

I replaced the battery to honeywell RTH230B. Heat won't turn on.

I followed a comment from a previous source and reversed the polarity of the batteries. I then flipped them back to the correct position and the flashing battery indicator went away and the thermostat functions correctly.

Honeywell RTH230B will not call for heat.

On a call for heat an internal switch should connect Rh and W, if it does not the stat is bad. Try it with no wires connected.

44860 thermostat won't activate in heat mode

I had the same set and problem. I had a RC wire which is the power to the AC. But didn't have an RH wire which is the power for the heat. To fix this just use the jumper wire and insert it in with the RC wire and hook it up to the RH. Fixed my problem.
