  If your White Rodgers Thermostat isn't producing heat, cool air, or running the fan, there are several potential causes: * A blown fuse or tripped circuit breaker could be the culprit. Replace the fuse or reset the breaker. * The furnace power switch might be off. Ensure it's turned on. * The furnace blower compartment door or panel may be loose. Replace the door panel correctly to engage the safety interlock or door switch. * There might be a loose connection to the thermostat or system. Try tightening the connections.

  If your White Rodgers Thermostat isn't producing heat, consider these possibilities: * The pilot light may not be lit. Try re-lighting it. * The furnace might be in a lock-out condition. If the heat works intermittently, contact the furnace manufacturer or a local HVAC service person for assistance. * The heating system may require service, or the thermostat might need replacement.

  If your White Rodgers Thermostat is not heating, start by checking if the pilot light is lit and relight it if necessary. If the furnace is in a lock-out condition, which may also cause intermittent heat, contact the furnace manufacturer or a local HVAC service person for assistance. To diagnose if the thermostat requires replacement, set the SYSTEM switch to HEAT and raise the setpoint above room temperature. Listen for a soft click sound, indicating proper operation. If there is no click, try resetting the thermostat. If it still doesn't click after resetting, contact your heating and cooling service person or place of purchase for a replacement. If it clicks, contact the furnace manufacturer or a HVAC service person to verify the heating is operating correctly.

Ensure no bare wire sticks out from under the terminal block. You can also try resetting the thermostat. If the fan switch is set to 'Fan ON', the thermostat might need to be replaced.
