Thermostat Wiring

[Halton]

Hello..... trying to install a new Honeywell Lyric T5 Thermostat

It requires a "C" wire ..... or use of the "G" wire work-around as per instructions

But current set-up seems a little odd..... see attached wiring diagram

As shown..... existing wire to Thermostat is 4 conductor

Any help on how to proceed is much appreciated....

Just remove the G wire from the thermostat and connect it to the C terminal on the new thermostat.  Then remove the G wire from the furnace and connect it to the C terminal with the other wire going to the AC.

The Y wire from the thermostat should not go directly to the AC.  It should go to the Y terminal in the furnace, then go to the AC, otherwise the furnace fan may not start on a call for cooling.  You should end up with 2 wires on the furnace C terminal and 2 wires on the furnace Y terminal.
