In the cooling mode for zone 1, why won't the temperature stay as set on the cool setting?

I have a two zone Carrier comfort zone 11 thermostat controlling a section of our home. the temperture on the cool setting continues to cool to less than set on the thermostat. I have tried to reset the tempertures for both heat and cool but still will cool to cooler that set on the unit.

Possibly 2 different scenarios, 1, your tstat is overshooting do to what is called temp droop. This means your tstat will allow the unit to overshoot temp set point to reach the desired humidity setpoint (typically a max of 3 degrees depending on the setting) or 2, the damper for that zone is not closing when set point reached.

SOURCE: Carrier thermostat

I hate to say it but Ive had trouble with Carrier's Tstats doing similar improper things. Unfortunatly the only repair is going to be replacement of the whole tstat. I recommend Honeywell's FocusPRO or VisionPRO tstat. Ive yet to have one fail and they have a 5yr warranty if they ever do.

Verify 24 volts at the low voltage transformer inside the air handler. If it is OK, jump out the red/green and yellow thermostat wires. If everything comes on, replace the thermostat.

the e2 error on your thermostat is a problem with the return temp sensor on your system, the only thing you can really do is call a company and replace it, you can't bypass it or remove it cause the system wont run properly

The stat that works is called the main and the other two are called slave stats. The stats must be set to heat or cool the same as the main. If you want one room to cool and one to heat , sorry. Need to upgrade to auto changeover. Is this AC actally a Heat pump?

I have just had a Comfort Zone CZ230ER heater installed in my garage. The room temp sensor is reading in reverse, Goes up as the room cools and goes down as the room warms.

That would be a warranty issue, but wonder if you are reading set temperature, ambient temperature or 'set back' temperature? Contact the maker.

Comfort Zone CZ230ER doesn't cool down to setpoint and shuts off

If your Comfort Zone CZ230ER is not cooling down to the setpoint and shutting off, there could be several potential issues causing this problem. Here are a few things to check:
  1. Check the air filter: A dirty or clogged air filter can restrict airflow and cause the unit to overheat. Be sure to clean or replace the air filter as needed.
  2. Check the thermostat: If the thermostat is faulty, it may not be accurately sensing the temperature in the room, which can prevent the unit from cycling properly. Try replacing the thermostat to see if that resolves the issue.
  3. Check for leaks: If the refrigerant level is low due to a leak, the unit may not be able to cool properly. Have a professional inspect the unit for leaks and repair them as needed.
  4. Check the compressor: If the compressor is faulty, it may not be able to properly circulate refrigerant through the system, which can prevent the unit from cooling. A professional will need to diagnose and repair any issues with the compressor.
  5. Check the fan motor: If the fan motor is not functioning properly, it can prevent the unit from properly circulating air, which can cause it to overheat and shut off prematurely. Check to see if the fan is running smoothly and replace the motor if necessary.
If you are unsure how to perform any of these checks or repairs, it's best to consult a professional HVAC technician.

How do I connect a 24v damper motor with 6 colored wires red white yellow green blue black to NO COM NC terminals.

Choose two colors of the thermostat wire, and connect them to the NO and COM and connect them to the zone control board leads for the zone intended. Almost all zone valves spring return open when deenergized. So ensure the zone valve is open with the system is off. At the base of zone valve there is a set screw that needs to engage the damper valve shaft in the open position with the motor in the spring release position. Most zone valve are 90 degree moment from full open to full shut. If you have a Carrier zone valve, they go full open to full shut in 45 degrees of motion. Your open stop need to be set so the valve stops in the full stop position.
To help understand the operation of a zone system, say you have 2 zone system and zone 1 thermostat initiates a heat or cool demand. Zone 2 valves energizes and shuts and zone 1 stays open and allow air to heat/ cool zone 1. If zone 2 thermostat simultaniously initiates the same heat/cool demand, the zone 2 valve opens and both zone heat/cool. When either thermostat is satisfied the opposite zone valve closes and when both thermostat are satisfied both zone valves open.
Hope this helps you understand zone operation. The same works for higher multizone systems.
