Hi Ckdasanders,

 

Thank you for posting in the community forum. Don’t worry I’m here to help you. Usually, there could be some different inconveniences that may occasion this situation, so let’s try to perform these troubleshooting steps: 

 

1. Check the Breakers and Fuses:

  • Turn off the power to your HVAC system at the breaker box.
  • Locate your HVAC system's fuse box and check if the fuse has blown. A blown fuse can interrupt power delivery to the RC wire.

2. Inspect the Wiring:

  • Once the power is off, carefully open the thermostat's base and check the RC wire connection. Ensure it's securely connected and there's no damage to the wire itself.
  • You might need to push the connector button down and re-insert the wire for a proper connection.

3. Restart the Thermostat:

  • Try a simple restart of your Nest thermostat. Hold down the display of your thermostat for about 10 seconds, then just wait until the thermostat turns on again. 

Here you can find more tips about how to solve the RC wire no-detected.

Let me know how it goes,

Regards, 

Daniel
