    Page 30, Step 6 in the right column: 1.) 0V on M1 to T5 2.) Disconnected T4,5,&6. Jumped T4 to T5 - does not open damper or turn on system 3.) All M1 to M4 and M1 to M6 readings correspond to whether the damper is open or closed.

    Upstairs AC zone not working

    I guess. I don't really think so though. I have the controller on page 16 and everything looks like it's wired correctly, maybe I have a bad relay? https://customer.honeywell.com/resources/techlit/TechLitDocuments/68-0000s/68-0101.pdf

    Upstairs AC zone not working

    Upstairs AC zone not working

    Also, the downstairs t-stat seems to be the "main" controller. If that is off...I can't use the upstairs t-stat to turn on the fan manually. If I set downstairs to cool or heat, I can manually turn the blower on using the upstairs t-stat.

    Flooring prep question - hump in the floor

    In a previous post I mentioned that I had my living room down to the studs and subfloor. Well there is a main beam running through the house and it looks like the main beam was most likely nailed together unevenly, so when the subfloor was placed over it, it wasn't exactly flat compared to the...

    Prepping new plaster walls

    The wife and I just recently had blueboard/plaster guys in to do the walls and ceilings of our living room. While they did an amazing job, there are a few very small areas that are either slightly rough compared to the rest of the walls or some very light trowel marks. I have a few prep/paint...
