Warranty Claim?

jcraw29 — Tue, 30 May 2023 18:32:43 GMT

I have had my Nest thermostat since Sept and it now does not recognize wires that are hooked up -- I believe I need to file a warranty claim -- where to file it?

@jcraw29 , first of all, are you saying the nest backplate no longer registers a wire as being attached? Go to your Nest Thermostat, enter SETUP > EQUIPMENT and you will see a display of your backplate and any wires attached. Take a picture of that and upload it here. Thank you.

I deleted and try to re-add it -- it does not even connect even after scanning the QR code

Yes - the thermostat is not picking up Wi-Fi - it doesn’t register anything

Hello everyone,

@jcraw29, I understand the situation you are in right now where your Nest Thermostat is not picking-up WiFi. However, we need more information such as the exact message code you are getting from the Nest Thermostat and on the app so we can determine what steps we should do in order to resolve the situation.

I'll look forward to your response.

Thanks for all you help here, @CoolingWizard, Mark, and Jenelyn.

Best,

Zoe

Hey jcraw29,

Perfect! Thanks for sharing the photos. Let's sort this out.

Going over these steps might help:

Remove your thermostat display from its base.
Take out both batteries and leave them disconnected for at least 3 minutes before plugging them back in.
Ensure that all wires are still properly connected and the tabs are pushed down.
Turn Off and On your phone's Wi-Fi network and Bluetooth.
1. Make sure that there are no Bluetooth devices connected to it.
Open the Google Home app and select the thermostat tile you're having an issue with if it's still showing. If not, proceed by adding it as a new device.

Let me know if that works.

Regards,
Mark
