I am decidedly not an HVAC guy and I need some help. I swapped thermostats between two houses and now house 1 is stuck on heat. As soon as the thermostat is plugged in the heat comes on, regardless of settings. Even when turned off. House 2 is functioning normally.

They are wired the way the previous unit had been, so I'm unsure of what happened. 

In H1 I have:

White to W1

Black to W2/Aux

Orange to O/B

Red to R

Yellow to Y

Blue to C

Green to G. 

Again, as soon as the thermostat gets plugged in, the heat comes on. 

I killed the breakers and opened the furnace to double check wiring to control board.

Control board has Black to W1 and White to W2, with W1 and W2 jumpered together. I swapped the B and W wires in the thermostat to match and same issue, heat as soon as thermostat plugged in and power on. 

 

I'm stumped because this t-stat worked great at House 2. And the Nest T-stat that was in H1 previously worked fine as well.

 

Didn't take pictures, but can run down and get some if it helps.
