How to wire trane heat pump

I cannot find where the white B, black X2 and blue wires go.

These old thermostats can be tricky. Generally O and B control the change-over valve for a heat pump. More common is just one wire/terminal often labeled O/B. Nest Thermostats don't support separate O and B. However there is a remote chance that B is something like a common or that both are not needed in your case. On the off chance, you happen to have a manual that shows what the terminals mean for your thermostat that would help! If so send a photo of the page that describes the terminals. Also any additional information about the HVAC system including a photo of the wire terminals inside the unit could help.

This is a simple Trane wiring. Tran uses the B terminal as Common (C), the X terminal is Emergency heat.

Give this wiring a try.

Red - R to Rc

Orange - O to OB

Green - G to G

Yellow - Y to Y1

Black - X2 - * (set for emergency heat)(jumper to U not needed)

Blue - W to W2
