Oct 7, 2014 at 18:07 comment added Ecnerwal I'll enter it as a vote for the good old fashioned physical heat/off/cool switch, which seems to stay where I put it. I suggest you find an old fashioned thermostat with one of those, or else replace the new-fashioned one with a different new-fashioned one (or try changing the battery, if it has one) since it appears to be defective in its new-fashioned-ness.

Oct 7, 2014 at 15:32 comment added John Chrysostom I'll get the make/model when I get home... it does not have a physical switch, it has a button that cycles through the settings. I'm replacing it this afternoon anyway, but I wanted to make sure it didn't have something to do with the furnace rather than the thermostat.
Oct 7, 2014 at 15:26 comment added Tester101 What is the make and model of the furnace? It's odd that the furnace would do anything, without sensing a flame.
Oct 7, 2014 at 15:24 comment added Tester101 What is the make and model of the thermostat? Does it have a physical switch to change between heat/cool/off?
