 Hello,

Looking for advise on wring issue. I have a Honeywell thermostat working perfectly fine that i want to upgrade to Nest 4th Gen Thermostat. I used the same wiring as for Honeywell:

Honeywell - Nest Thermostat

Y - Y1

G - G

C - C

W - W1

RC - RC or RH

I get Error448 stating no power on RC, same error when i use RH instead. spoke with Google chat assistant. Also tried with charging nest thermostat panel for 8 hours. nothing could solve the issue yet. i have attached link for photos of Honeywell and Nest wiring for reference. Looking for suggestions.

Are there two separate cables going to the thermostat?

Take a look in the furnace/air handler and verify how the cables are terminated there. Post a picture.
