Problems with SYSTXCCUID01-B

[cmeisel2009]

Hi,

My father in law purchased us a 58MVB080 a while back and I hooked up a cheap $20 thermostat. Last week a friend came by and educated me that I should really have a SYSTXCCUD01-B installed to take advantage of the unit and not run it on high all the time. So I bought one and installed it (so I thought).
I hooked all cables up as advised (Yellow from Thermostat to Y/Y2, Red from Thermostat to R, Green from Thermostat to G and White from Thermostat to W/W1).

I hooked it up, turns the heater back on, went upstairs to admire the new thermostat and the SYSTXCCUID01-B is not staring up. It seems off.
Once every minute (or maybe two) it flashes white but other than that it appears dead. I pressed every button...nothing. I checked the fuse on the furnace and it appears ok. The furnace (I checked in the dark) blinks. One short blink and two long ones...one short, two long ones.
I am completely lost on what to do next. Any help/suggestions would be appreciated.

thanks

claus

Don't know who "advised" you, but that is not even close to right.

Can't give you instructions, against the rules. Kinda surprised someone

sold you that control.

I was advices by a friend and two local installers and the carrier customer service I called confirmed that my particular unit and serial number require the systxccuid001-b (if I decide to go that route which I did)
my father in law has about 12 of these carrier units with the same setup so I am not sure what you mean by wrong info.

Fixed and works perfectly. Plug into ABCD on circuit board and you are done.
