why does my ecobee say calibrating heating and cooling disabled?

Here are some possible reasons why your ecobee might say “Calibrating: Heating and Cooling Disabled”.

1. Your ecobee has lost power and is now regaining power and calibrating its temperature sensor. This is a normal process and should only take a few minutes.
2. There may be a problem with your ecobee’s temperature sensor. If the sensor is not working properly, the ecobee will not be able to accurately regulate the temperature of your home.
3. There may be a problem with your ecobee’s software. If the software is not up to date, it may cause the ecobee to malfunction.
4. There may be a problem with your ecobee’s hardware. If there is a problem with the ecobee’s hardware, it may need to be repaired or replaced.

If you are seeing the “Calibrating: Heating and Cooling Disabled” message on your ecobee, there are a few things you can do to try to troubleshoot the problem:

1. Check to see if your ecobee is getting power. If it is not, try plugging it into a different outlet or using a different power cord.
2. Try restarting your ecobee. To do this, unplug it from the power outlet for 30 seconds and then plug it back in.
3. Check to see if your ecobee’s software is up to date. If it is not, you can update the software by following the instructions on the ecobee website.
4. If you have tried all of the above and you are still seeing the “Calibrating: Heating and Cooling Disabled” message, you may need to contact ecobee support for further assistance.

In my personal experience, I have seen this message a few times on my own ecobee. The first time it happened, I was worried that something was wrong with my thermostat. However, after restarting my ecobee, the message went away and the thermostat worked fine. The second time I saw the message, I was actually trying to calibrate my ecobee myself. I had read that you can do this by going into the settings menu and selecting “Calibrate Temperature Sensor.” However, I didn’t follow the instructions carefully and ended up getting the error message. After reading the instructions again and following them more carefully, I was able to calibrate my ecobee successfully.

I think it’s important to note that the “Calibrating: Heating and Cooling Disabled” message can be caused by a variety of different factors. If you are seeing this message on your ecobee, it’s important to troubleshoot the problem to try to determine the cause. If you are unable to resolve the problem on your own, you may need to contact ecobee support for assistance.
