Hi, 

the old owner left the nest learning thermostat and their account still connected. How can I remove theirs and add mine?

I just had the same issue go to settings...select account connection and Reset. Then you can reconnect to your network. Hope this helps

Hi everyone,

 

@SnowyClare, thanks for reaching out here in the Community. Just go to the Settings of your Nest Thermostat and look for Reset> All Settings. Just a reminder, all of your configuration will get reset. Make sure you know your heating and cooling system settings in the settings. In case you don't, you may go to Settings> Equipment.

 

Let us know your update here.

 

I appreciate the help, IDO.

  

Best,

Emerson

Thank you! I finally asked the previous owner to remove his account as I really scared I forgot anything about the input. All set now! Appreciate for all your help.

I need help no the previous account in the old owner, but I don’t know who the old owner is to take it off the account.

Hey everyone,

 

@Alicia4, thanks for joining the discussion. I’m sorry to hear that you’re having the same issue. Have you had a chance to try to factory reset the Nest thermostat as suggested by Emerson above? If yes, how was it?

 

Let me know if you have any questions.

 

I appreciate your help, Emerson and Jenelyn.
