Possible Causes

Unstable 24VAC supply, Loose connection between display and wall plate pins, Firmware controlling brightness malfunctioning, Failing LED driver on Wyze board

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Turn off HVAC power at the breaker before reseating the thermostat.

  • Reseat display: Remove the Wyze display and inspect the wall plate pins for corrosion or bending. Clean gently and reattach firmly.
  • Check 24VAC stability: Have a technician measure R–C voltage for fluctuations that could affect display brightness.
  • Update firmware: Use the Wyze app to install any available firmware updates.
  • Replace display if hardware fault: If flickering persists with stable power and updated firmware, the LED driver or display may be failing and the display assembly should be replaced.
