Hi maxthecat123, 

 

Sorry to hear about what you're experience with your Nest thermostat. Let's a look into it further.

 

Just to cover all the bases, could you provide a photo of your thermostat display showing the code or message you're getting? It would be a great help if you provide me a rundown of the steps you've already tried. Also, when and where was this thermostat bought as well as what country are you in? I'll be more than glad to check on your warranty options should we established that you've exhausted all possible steps but to no avail. 

 

Best, 

Melba

Hey maxthecat123max, 

 

I understand. In order for us to check on your warranty options, I need to ensure that we cover all the bases, kindly reply back with a photo of your thermostat's display showing the message and code you're getting and also provide at least all the steps you've tried for documentation purposes. 

 

Let me know as well when and where was this thermostat bought and what country are you in. I'll look forward to your response.
