    Before getting too involved, make sure your wires at the furnace are making good contact.

    Esspecially the bottom ( in photograph ) blue wires ( or are they gold ? ) looks like you may have pushed the second one in too far and are pinching down on the insulation and not copper as the first one is.
    My T.P. wheeling and dealing feedback is here.

    Opinions are like assholes, everybody has one, and it stinks more than mine.

    Okay continuity test on all the wires in the 18-10 came back good. So this is definitely at the furnace. Thank you everyone for all your inputs.

    Anyone got one of these handy? Reads 250V @ 2A.

    Tiny little bugger.

    On a serious note. For anyone reading this who has to replace thermostat wires. Tape the old to new before pulling the old out.

    Negative on Home Depot, Lowe's, Ato Zone, and Napa. Rat Shack is next. If all else fails I will rewire it to take a larger diameter fuse with the same rating.

    Hmmm. I got some from the Home Depot in Lakewood. But that doesn't help you much. Better find the short or you'll have the same result.

    This one is physically smaller than a 5x20, which many people carry. No biggie - I'll do a 1 1/4 inline, and put a 250V @ 2A in it.

    Agreed on finding the short. I am hoping that it popped when I cut the existing wiring - I thought I had the power off when I did the cut, but I forget things a lot.
