Baystar 2018. I tried to turn on heat pump and myThermostat had an e1 code showing. Tried a reset and showed 2 and 4 for zones and only a/c and off worked on screen but couldn't change temps or make it work. I followed an internet suggestion of shutting down power 15 minutes. Then then I had a completely dark blank screen. Checked breaker and fuse in bath and they they were good.

We just experienced the same thing for the 2nd time in the past couple of years. Each time, replacing the thermostat with a new one fixed the problem. Resetting, etc. did nothing. The first replacement lasted about 2 years before the problem recurring.

When it happened again about a week ago, the wall it was attached to was very hot from the sun and we found condensation on the back of the thermostat. The hole behind the thermostat is fairly large and there is a metal bar in the wall that was extremely hot. We decided to close that hole up as much as possible and mount the thermostat where it isn't exposed directly to the insulation through the hole in the wall to hopefully protect it from extreme temperatures.

We intend to carry a spare with us from now on as we might not be near a place with parts the next time it happens.

I always turn that thermostat off when changing incoming power sources. They don't seem to like changing A/C sources while operating.

After talming to Newmar and one answer on the forum. I purchased a new thermostat ,replaced old one, and it works perfectly.

If it happens again, try a Micro-Air EasyTouch RV™ Thermostat unit specific for your coach.

My question is when in the AUTO mode will the thermostat start the gas furnace? I am guessing it does not so I have been using the HEAT mode.

When I put the MODE in Heat the furnace runs but we also get cold air from the HVAC ceiling fixtures. How do I stop cold air coming into unit when in furnace mode.

What says the wisdom of the group?
