Firstly, what model of thermostat is it that you have? I see you select the learning thermostat, but want to make sure as the setup steps are very different.

Hello folks,

I wanted to stop by and see how I could help.

Thanks for looking into this, Jenelyn.

@leb, thanks for posting on this thread. To clarify, the reason you can't reconnect your thermostat in the Nest app is because of the forgotten PIN code. Is that right? If so, please pull the thermostat display from its base and connect a USB cord to your computer. Then, look for the folder named TechnicalInfo.PLIST."

If the file is visible, let us know what personal computer you're using (Windows, macOS, or ChromeOS) so we can move with the next step.

I'll look forward to your response.

Regards,
Mark
