Hey Wolfhowler59, 

 

Thanks for reaching out. 

 

A few questions — what specific Nest thermostat do you have? What type of HVAC system are you setting up the thermostat on? Also, could you provide a photo of your original thermostat wires showing the labels of it's terminal?

Hi Melba, sorry for the delayed response as I was ill. Now much better. 

I have purchased a GoogleNest Thermostat. I'm not sure what HVAC system I have. I will get a photo for you. Thanks so much for your help!

Oh no, I hope you're feeling better now. Reply back with the photo as soon as you're able to — no need to rush.

Hey there, 

 

I hope you're feeling better now. Also, not to be a nudge but have you had the chance to take the requested photos already?
