How to Connect a C-Wire Adapter to Your Amazon Smart Thermostat

[cimmeriian]

I couldn't get it working with just C and K. I tested C and R and got 24 V so figured that the C-wire adapter gave me four wires out, my thermostat has slots for those four wires, CRWK, may as well connect them all 😀

Everything is working fine now 😀 In hindsight it's a short and easy run, I should've just ran another wire down to forego the C-wire adapter but meh, it's working, this guide at least helped me feel more comfy.

Thanks!

So I can run a new five-wire by using the old cable to fish in if I don't want to get a C adapter?

Hi, can i just use one c wire adapter to connect multiple smart thermostats, one for each floor in the house?

It’s all fun and games until your furnace doesn’t have a mother board…

Does this work if I were to plug in the four wires in the wall next to the actual thermostat to the adapter, instead of going all the way to the furnace to connect it?

if i remove the O wire to place it on the W located on the c box. do i then place the C-wire adapter to the main box to W or to the O spot?

Can I connect the c adapter to the unit condenser outside

My existing thermostat only has red, blue, and white connected. The yellow and green wires are there, but not connected to the existing thermostat. Should I connect these to my amazon thermostat?

how do you connect the c adapter if you only have 2 wires in the thermostat? white and red? where the hell do you connect yellow and red to in the c adapter and its wires to where and same with at the thermostat? super confusing. heat only system

Trying to be simplistic only works if everything is as you think it should be. It would be understandable better if you explained the PURPOSE of each wire.

Do i still need connect R and W wire to a R and w? Or leave them unconnected ? This is a little confusing

If I am only connecting my smart thermostat to my central air unit bc my heater has its in thermostat do I have to connect the c adapter directly to the air conditioner?

My air conditioner don't have a y labeled wire how I has an F label

So you don’t have to connect the white and red wires to the thermostat end? I feel like I’m. It gonna get an answer😔

The end of the video does not make sense to myself and apparently many others who have commented. It stays to only connect 2 wires of the 4 you started with. Please pin a comment to the top of the comment thread, that has the proper instructions for the last steps of connecting wires.

So I don’t need to connect the BLUE wire at the thermostat???

[sugarman]

How if I don't move the Y wire to the K terminal, and let it stay on Y, will the unit still working properly?

So they went with HONEYWELL. Interesting.
