Nest power connector

RB9
Community Member

Hi,

I have a fairly new Trane air handler (2 years old) for A/C only. I only have 3 wires available to a Nest 3rd gen thermostat with Y1, G, Rc connected. I don’t have a C wire, so the thermostat keeps dropping off WiFi because it doesn’t have enough power to charge it. I tried checking online if the best power connector is compatible with my system but for some reason, the list is restricted. I also tried using the G wire as a C wire but the unit would not turn on at all. So I’m hoping the power connector would work. Does anyone know if it is compatible?

Thanks

Hi RB9,

 

Thanks for posting in the Google Nest Community forum. I'm sorry for the delay. Could you please share a photo of the wires that are connected to your control board? 

 

Best,
