Check out YouTube  ONE HOUR SMART HOME. Look for heat pump. I had a Honeywell with WHITE as AUX and black as Emergency heat. I installed white to W2 and Black as *.  Mine seems to be working.

Hey folks, 

 

Thanks for your suggestion, 1007gary. 
 

Oksepp, sorry for the delay but thanks for reaching out. Could you share a photo of your current thermostat wires showing the terminal labels so I could take a look?
