Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

I installed a Climatouch digital thermostat about 5 years ago,
everything has worked great. This winter the furnace did not seem to
be heating the house properly so before next winter I was going to get
everything checked as the furnace is about 17 years old.

Well, I woke this morning and the furnace was not on. I checked the
Climatouch and it is not on either - dead with no display. I checked
the circuit breakers and all the power in the house is working
properly.

So now I'm not sure if I have a dead furnace or just a dead
Climatouch? Would the Climatouch go out if the one of the furnace
components did? Looking for any advice before I call someone in and
spend $$$.

Thanks for your help.

Does the thermostat take batteries.

Hi,
And do you se 24V AC control voltage in the furnace?

The thermostat is probably getting its 24 volts from the furnace. Be sure
you have power going to the furnace first. If you have power to it, check
for a transformer and see if the output is working. If you don't see it or
have no clue, call a pro. Replacing the proper part the first time by a pro
is cheaper than shotgunning by a DIY

With that tiny hint of information, we're supposed to
diagnose an ancient furnace which gets no maintenance? We
don't have much to work with.
