Thermostats: alerts and wiring codes vs real equipment faults (Nest, ecobee, Honeywell, communicating systems)

Smart-thermostat alerts are inferred from temperature and runtime trends, not read from the equipment. Google says its System Health Monitor is not a substitute for an HVAC diagnosis. Some thermostat codes are about the thermostat's own power and wiring: Nest E and N codes in one family mean it lost power it was drawing through a call wire, often fixed with a C wire. The equipment fault itself is on the furnace board LED, the outdoor unit or, on communicating systems, in the wall control's service menu.
