Nest 2nd Gen Thermostat Emergency Heat Wiring
I just recently installed a 2nd Gen Nest thermostat and it's working great! The only thing is my old Honeywell Thermostat had a jumper wire from AUX to E. I do not have a wire connected to E, just the jumper. I was told the Nest does not require jumpers. Is there anyway to use one of the spare wires and connect a spare wire to E on the air handler in the attic? Thanks!

I am not up on these stat, and the manual on line says nothing.....
If you only had one wire on on Aux/E then you just wire it to Aux on the new stat..
Have you switched over to Emergency heat before?

No, I have never had to use emergency heat but nice to have a backup in the winter. I took the cover off of the unit in the attic and there is no terminal labeled E, hence the jumper that was between AUX & E.
