2. Check the backplate wire connections and ensure they are inserted properly into the terminals.
3. In the case of one R-Wire, make sure it is inserted into the RC terminal.
- R or RC or RH > RC
In case of more than one R-Wire, make sure RH is inserted into the RH terminal and RC or R is inserted into the RC terminal.
