    What to do if Lightstat TME has no heating or cooling?

      Denise Elliott MDAug 19, 2025
      If your Lightstat thermostat isn't heating or cooling, there are several possible causes. First, check if the Lightstat TME is powered off and press the System ON/OFF button. Also, ensure that power is reaching the equipment and the Lightstat TME by checking switches, circuit breakers, fuses, the gas valve, and the pilot light. Verify that the Lightstat TME isn't in Night Setback. Finally, check the display to verify that the Lightstat TME is set at its Cooling Minimum or Heating Maximum.

      If your Lightstat thermostat fan is blowing cold air during the heating season, it might be due to the Fan ON/AUTO setting. Move the Fan to the Auto position by pressing the FAN ON/AUTO button.

      If your heating or cooling isn't turning on with your Lightstat thermostat, it could be due to the O/B switch being set to the wrong position for your heat pump. Also, a time delay might be holding the heating or cooling off; try pressing the Check button to cancel any time delays.

      Trevor HooverAug 26, 2025
      If the display on your Lightstat thermostat doesn't come on during power-up, the issue might be a lack of power to the Lightstat TME. Verify that 24 VAC is present at the terminal block by measuring from R to C. If there's no voltage, check the breakers and fuses.

    Why does my Lightstat Thermostat display go blank after powering up?
    • M
      Maria RandolphAug 28, 2025
      If your Lightstat TME powers up correctly but the display goes blank, it could be due to a transformer that is too small for the installation. The Lightstat TME needs a minimum of 21VAC to operate, so you may need to install a larger transformer to provide adequate power to keep the voltage at 24VAC. Also, check for a wiring short.

    What does it mean when my Lightstat TME Thermostat shows room temp as '00'?

      If your Lightstat Thermostat displays the room temperature as '00', it could mean that the Remote Temp Sensor switch #5 is set to ON, but there is no Remote Room Sensor connected. Turn off the Lightstat TME and move switch #5 to the OFF position, then cycle the Lightstat TME power. It could also mean that there is a Remote Room Sensor installed, but the wiring connections are not correct, so check the wiring connections.
