The furnace thermostat is blank.
If the furnace thermostat is blank, it probably means that there is no power to the furnace, and the unit has either shut off because of overheating, a power outage, or an electrical fault. To find out what happened, you need to have a licensed HVAC technician come out and diagnose what happened. If the technician determines an electrical fault, you should have your utility company come out and fix it free of charge.
The furnace thermostat may be blank because of a few different reasons. One of the most common causes is that the batteries have been removed or lost. The other reason is that the thermostat has been tipped upside down, which resets it and erases its memory.
This guide will demonstrate how to reset your furnace thermostat if it is blank and can’t be read.
In this section, we will discuss the causes and solutions for a blank furnace thermostat, which typically means that the furnace does not have power.
Causes: This issue can be caused by one of three things. The first cause is a blown a fuse in the transformer. The second cause is a problem with the thermostat’s wiring or bad thermostat wiring, which has come loose from its connection to the control board. Another cause of this issue could be a failure in the control board itself.
Solutions: When you are troubleshooting an issue like this, there are certain steps that you should take to find out what has gone wrong with your furnace before replacing any parts or making any repairs. First, check and make sure there isn’t anything blocking your unit’s air supply and exhaust vents on either side of the unit. Next, check and ensure that your breaker hasn’t tripped off because it could be causing a power outage to you.
