A/C Delayed Countdown Repeats

My A/C keeps saying it's delayed 5 minutes, counts down, then resets the 5 minute delay without ever starting the A/C. It's been like this for 2 days. I have the 1st Gen and it is wired red rh, w1 heat, y1 cool, G-Fan, C-24v common. Please help, it's 90 degrees!

@smooney , sometimes this is caused by a power coming from the air handler and it’s not fully charging the battery. The battery is going down or going bad in the thermostat itself. You need to go into settings and then that device and then check the battery and see how much charge is in it and how much current charging a battery

Hi there,

 

Thanks for reaching out. I'm sorry for the delay. I just want to check if you managed to see the response above. How's the readings for your Nest Thermostat battery? 

 

I appreciate your help, @CoolingWizard.

 

Best,
