- Richard from The Smart Thermostat Shop.co.uk (formally The Evohome Shop.co.uk) shows you how to re-bind/re-pair a Honeywell DTS92E Wireless Thermostat & Honeywell BDR91 Wireless Relay Box (also known as a Honeywell DT92E).
These devices can easily become unbound if you press and hold the wireless relay box button for more than 15 seconds, so should be an easy fix following our video.
However, if your DTS92E thermostat has failed, you can buy a Honeywell Home DT4R to replace the DTS92E and will easily bind to your existing BDR91 here - thesmartthermostatshop.co.uk/...

I had a council repair man come to look at it and he didn’t know what to do and asked me to call again today and ask for another engineer call out. I woke up cold and miserable and decided to just search for the product number on RUclips and this angel of a man popped up. I followed his video and now my boiler is back on with heating and hot water and I didn’t have to take another day off work waiting for the council engineer. Thank you
That's really nice of you to say! Glad we have helped! :)
Thank you. Clear easy to understand instructions. Why Honeywell make what should be an easy procedure so complicated is beyond me!
A sincere thank you for this. There are shorter videos on RUclips that don't go into this level of detail and so don't adequately explain how to get this thing working. I have bookmarked it so I can refer again. Honeywell have made this ludicrously complex for the layman.
Much easier than looking at instructions from a manual. So straight forward after following this video. Thank you
Thanks for these very simple and clear instructions Richard. Managed to get my two boxes communicating again today and getting warm and cosy again. Much appreciated. x
every year I watch this to sort out thermo glitches, and I thank the gods that this vid exists :)
Excellent! We have a rescuing home in Bucharest, a house full of cats and the central heating stopped working. We have the service included in the price but they could come only on Monday.😔 🙈😔. Now it is working as usual..THANK YOUUUUU!!! 🐈🐈🐈🐈🐈🐈💞💞💞💞🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾
No problem! :)
Thanks for such a straightforward and well-paced video - I didn’t even need to pause it at any point, just followed along in real time and my new thermostat was paired before I even realised it had happened 😊
Great to hear! Glad I could help… 😎👍🏻
Thank you so much. Couldn’t understand why the heating downstairs on the ground floor wasn’t working but was working on the 1st and 2nd floor. We have a thermostat for each floor. Followed your video instructions and can already feel the radiators warming up! We’ve been abroad in climates of above 30 temperatures and to return home yesterday evening to cold U.K. temperatures again was hard especially with the radiators not working! Video was easy to follow for someone who isn’t tech or gadget savvy!
Richard, Thank you very much. Your video is truly amazing. You are now my reference and guide to reset this Honeywell thermostat. Much appreciated.
Thank you so much for this, has sorted my heating out - just in time for the cold!
I've been on the Internet for 3 hours trying to fix this. Your video has come to the rescue. Love saver.
Thanks, appreciate the comment! :)
Thank You for this priceless information.
I was seriously thinking of getting the manual switch reinstalled on the boiler because as pensioners we are not tec savvy at all.
What a kind considerate man you are for posting this video. Our sincerest thanks.
Glad I could help!
thank you! had to replace a faulty thermostat and the installation guide was useless. Thanks for the clear instructions.
Thank you so much for sharing this. I suffer from ptsd and anxiety, but because you shared this I didn't have to spend days having a panic attacks from I stranger being in my home. I was able to follow your instructions and fix the issue myself. Thank you so much
Thank you 👍👏
I’ve been struggling to get the heating to work all week and was in tears worrying about what it might cost to fix. This sorted it! Thank you for being a legit lifesaver. 🎉
Glad it helped!
We just used this to set ours up! Worked an absolute charm!!
Richard, this video guide is used again today. What a live saver. A thgousand and One thank yous.
Life saver much easier to follow than the instruction manual
Brilliant Richard. Couldn’t have done this without your helpful video. The instructions that came with the replacement Dt92E where useless. Thanks
Many thanks. When I read the Honeywell instructions, my first thought was "do I need our Heating Engineer?" Not after watching your video.
Much clearer than the manual! Thanks, it really helped
Good one mate managed to help dad out when he got this problem!
Thanks brilliantly explained much appreciated 👍
Really helpful the instructions are of no use in the booklet you get with this. Thank you for posting this
Aaargh. Have just used this video for about the 10th time in 2 years to remind me how to reset the binding. Thank you for having this video up. Super useful
Brilliant, fixed my problem, thanks :)
Thank you for your video which allowed me to save my thermostat.
Amazing! Thank you so much Richard! We were scratching our heads and now it's all working again. And it's very cold so we're delighted!
Alice Gilmour great. Glad the video has helped you out. 😎👍🏻
❤ thank you so easy to follow and now working. I was panicking so much 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻😘
Thank you so much for this video helped me to sort mine myself 😁
This is my guiding video clip. So grateful.
Thank you very much , this has solved my heating problem
Many thanks for the information and better than trying to read and do the job 🤗🤗
Excellent instructions. Thank you 😊
Thanks so much, my wife and I lost the connection between the thermostat and the boiler but you have just saved the day. Many thanks again.
Thank you all working good now your a gem !!!
Big help thank you please note to take the batteries out to remove the card before putting them back in (the card is there so it stops it from working)
Man oh man, have you ever tried understanding Honeywell's own videos or user manuals, they are RUBBISH. This video was spot on and the boiler is up and running again. Thanks for posting, Brilliant!!
Thanks a lot for this!
Many thanks for this!
Mate thank you so much your a fkn life saver. Very simple clear instructions 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
Really helpful, thank you 👍
Excellent video.worked well
zeb akhtar wee hi I haven't anything on screen to start

Forget that ! It just fell apart and exposed them ! Good demo you have here
Straight forward to reset thank you for sharing
Thank you so much! You helped me!!
Thanks a lot man.
Omg you’re a genius this worked a treat!
Appreciate the comment! :)
Thank you so much. Brilliant video 👍
Glad it was helpful!
Brilliant. And it worked
Spot on really helpful
First class mate you got me out of a pickle there and saved me an old fashioned war bashing form my wife
Perfect - thanks...
Thanks for this. Have now re set and all ok.
Glad it helped
Thanks a bunch
`Great vid Richard, very clear and concise. My setup only kicks in if I turn the stat off and on again. New batts have been installed to try and cure, any ideas?
Not sure sorry Andy. If you have reset the unit like I have showed you, it is possibly a faulty unit. You can call technical support on 0300 130 1299 option 3 if you want to check with them?
Life saver !
Thank you !!!!
You're welcome!
Thanks for this helped alot. Does the boilers front panel need to be set in any particular way ?
Each boiler is different. Maybe have a chat with your heating installer to see if any efficiency improvements can be made?
Straight forward & clear instructions. I cleared down the DT92E as described but nothing happened on the receiver when I held the button down (for longer than suggested, too). The units were new in January, replacing ones with the same problem i.e. not talking to each other/unresponsive which led to the central heating being constantly on unless I turned off the boiler. This is again the same situation. Are they duff or is it me?
BDR91’s are really reliable, so I would say if they are failing in quick succession there is a wiring fault.
@@MWPHS Thank you. I shall rattle the cage of an electrician.
@@terryc-d2693 Did you ever find the root cause of the BDR91 not responding to your long button press when trying to reset? I have the same problem as you had
@@neil-robb annoyingly no. But one possibility could be the permanent live wire to the base plate on the receiver wasn't permanently live. The feed was taken from the ch timer thing and the heating bods thought that because this was being turned off to prevent the boiler from continually running, the receiver unit was getting so confused it just packed up.
Not a lot of help I'm afraid but it might be worth checking.
Good luck!
Lifesavers thank you ❤❤❤
Thank you so much for this clear explanation.
I've rebound the thermostat and relay box successfully. But that has introduced two new issues - 1) the override for the heating doesn't kick in, and 2) for the pre-set time for the radiators the heating is very modest. It comes on but at a very low temperature.
The thermostat reads 17.5 degrees and the target temperature is 21.5 degrees. The flame icon is visible, and the RFID very occasionally appears.
Any thoughts? Could the rebinding have changed more settings? We've always had full heat or no heat in the radiators - no halfway point. All individual radiator thermostats are turned on and I've just tried switching them all to maximum but the override is not having an effect. Thanks.
Unfortunately Howard you are asking us to diagnose your heating system problems with a crystal ball (joke)! :) It sounds like you have an issue not associated to the room thermostat, so this needs investigating by a heating installer. Just re-pairing the thermostat alone following the video we have produced would not change anything (as long as the video is followed to the letter).
@@MWPHS Thanks for this. Yes, that sounds likely. I'll call our contact. Thanks once again for this video - and also for replying to me and so many others over the years.
Thank you. We have to do this every time the batteries die or the child knocks the thermostat over. It's so difficult! Why Honeywell, why!?!?
Thanks for your video. ❤
You should never have to do this. Changing batteries should not cause this issue, but rebinding it is a faff! 👍🏻
Great thank you
Thank you ❤
Can you have more that one connected to the relay box for example this thermostat and also the evohome?
CupraBBD the BDR91 has 4 memory slots so in theory yes this would be possible. The question is why?
THANK YOU
Hi Richard - this is super helpful. I have a related question. Is it possible to pair / bind a DTS92E with an HR92UK - I have long curtains which cover the radiator so the HR92UK doesn't get the room up to temperature unless i set it to a much higher temperature than wanted.
Hi, yes you can pair a DTS92E as a room sensor in an evohome HR92 controlled zone. We will have some videos covering this soon, however if you need support doing it in the meantime contact Resideo tech support on 0300 1301299 option 3.
Great video. Thank you.
Question! What may cause the receiver unit to show a RED light and the system to fail?
Normally a loss of comms between BDR91 and DTS92E. BDR91 too close to metal objects is the number 1 culprit.
@@MWPHS Thank you so much for responding. The BDR91 *IS* close to the hot water tank and various pipes but all has worked satisfactorily for quite a number of years now. I did re-bind as per your instructions and have kept the DTS92E in an adjacent bedroom as a temporary measure. The connection hasn't dropped again so I'll try moving the sender unit downstairs again soon. Thanks again for your VERY helpful video instructions. 😃
Can I just replace the faulty stat (dts92), and pair to the existing relay box (bdr91)? Or should I replace both items? Thanks
Solar Rover you can just buy the DTS92E as a spare and pair in - theevohomeshop.co.uk/honeywell-home-evohome/25-honeywell-dts92e1020-wireless-digital-room-thermostat-dts92.html
Absolute lifesaver! Thank you so much. The relay box has been in fail safe mode for months until it finally turned permanently red. I’ve now reset the thermostat and the relay box using your video and BINGO! Thank you so much. We have heating!
Thank you so much for the video! Amazing, 2 minutes video has sorted out my problem and saved me time and money to call my plumber out :-) Bless you!
Thank you
Hi, I follow your instructions and the red light goes out on the relay box, I then set the temp above room but then no green light. There is a wireless icon at the bottom but nothing happens. Can you help?
If it is bound correctly as per the video, the thermostat and BDR91 should work. Have you tried removing the power supply from the BDR91 for a couple of minutes and then re-powering the BDR91 and trying again?
I have got to the options but haven’t got the clear indicator, is it shown in any other way, I have Honeywell DT90E
DT90E is a completely different product and unfortunately this video will not be relevant to it.
I’ve done all steps one by one which is fine but at the end on the relay box and light didn’t on. Do you know why or what’s the problem with it ? Thank you for help
Sometimes, you have to turn the thermostat all the way down and then all the way back up again. Also make sure the thermostat is set higher than the room temperature. If you need support, call 0300 130 1299.
Hi in trying to fit one of these but when I press the two buttons for the installer menu and press down those options you show at the begining do not show on my stat, I can only press up not down. Pressing up leads to different options that does not go to the ones you show on here.
Neil Griffiths this is a wireless DTS92E and only the wireless version will have these menu options.
My son has just moved into rented house and it has this Honeywell thermostat,the he gets hot water but no heating even tho the thermostat display clicks and shows the heat symbol as if it has come on ,i have searched the house and cant find the relay box you speak of in this video.
Is the relay box a must for this thermostat to work ? Soryy if this is a stupid question but i know nothing of how these things work 😊
The thermostat in this video is wireless, but the one your son has is probably a DT90E. This might help ( support.resideo.com/s/article/Where-can-I-find-the-user-guide-for-the-DT90E-thermostat?language=en_US ).
Thank you 🎉
No problem!
I've been an electrician for over 50 years' so, I should be able to sort this problem out... but a helpful hand would be nice! My remote doesn't show the boiler being on... no 'flame!' Any ideas? I will try this and well done! AH!!!!!!!!! This solved the problem, with the 'flame' sign!' - great stuff, after two years' without it, haha!!!
Glad the video has helped you! :)
Hi
My one the transmitter is not letting me to increase the temperature. Can I just buy a new transmitter and using the old receiver?
Yes you can just buy a new thermostat. We also have the DT4R which can replace the DTS92E - thesmartthermostatshop.co.uk/?product_cat=0&s=dt4r&post_type=product
Does the relay box green light need to always be on? Thanks
No, the green light will only be on when the relay box has a physical demand from the thermostat.
How do I get the thermostat box off the wall to bring it to 2-3 meters from the rely box please?
You shouldn't need to physically move them closer, the distance stated is to ensure the devices are not too close to each other. :)
Hi there. The thermostat DTS92E1020 has a blank screen. New batteries did not work. I bought a DT90E1012 from screwfix as the nearest available option but the menu is not the same so I presume this cannot bind with the unit on the wall? Or am I doing something wrong?? Appreciate any help..as Its getting cold!!
A DTS92E is what you wanted, not a DT90 as are completely different thermostats.
Thx a lot.
Is there a difference between the DT90 and DT92. I have a new DT90 which I am trying to bind to replace a broken one. When I get to the stage where I press both the up/down arrows I get "Inst", but when i press the down arrow it stays on "Inst." It will allow me to press teh up arrow but then I just get ot, cr pb etc. Am I missing something?
The DT90 is a 'wired' thermostat (not wireless). The '2' in older Honeywell thermostats denoted that it was a 'wireless' product. I hope that helps?
@@MWPHS Well that's the problem then!! Thanks so much for the quick response.
I changed the batteries in my Stat (having also confirmed the batteries are indeed working) but I get absolutely nothing on the screen. Does this mean my Stat is kaput?
Ginny Kopacz quite possibly yes. Apologies for the late reply.
Hi, I have that very thermostat in my living room but however high or low I set the temperature, the radiators heat up to the same degree. What does the power button do? I thought if I pressed it while I went out, it would stall the heating till I got back but it appears to do nothing. Can you help please
The power button should turn the heating off. You need to bear in mind the thermostat is only one part of a heating system and if the other components are faulty, then it won't matter what you set the thermostat to, it might still operate? Obtain a local heating installer to come and check your heating system for you.
@@MWPHS Thank you for that. Something must be faulty so I'll do as you suggest
I can do hold up and down buttons then the next step of pressing down nothing happens.. I can press up then back down through different settings, but to press down it does not work... Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
Me too any advice
Bought both new parts and same problem
There are two models of Honeywell thermostats and they look the same. This video is specifically for the DTS92E. If you have a DT90 this video will not working for you.
@@user-fq5fb3ch8n me too
I followed it and the flame icon shows on the thermostat control but radiator is still not working.
Is the green light coming on the relay box? If it is, could be a fault beyond the thermostat? Speak to your local heating installer.
HI, my thermostat is blank? any suggestions on how I turn on
If you remove the battery cover and check or replace the batteries this may help?
I'm afraid the CLR screen doesn't come up, only the Inst screen. The down button does nothing after this, the Up bottom only gives other options - not the CLR screen. I would be very grateful if you could advise how else to rebind?
Are you sure you have a DTD92E? If you take the batteries out, does the code say DTS92E or DT90E? If it is a DTS92E then following the video will result in the correct menus displaying.
My thermostat doesn’t show the fire sign. I’ve also changed the battery but no luck. Any help 😊
Sorry I’ve no ideas. Have you contacted technical support (0300 1391299)?
@@MWPHS yes and the problem was that that one of the workers extended the wires and connected it with the boiler. Do it would only work if I turn it on or off from the boiler. Thanks for the help
Can you explain how to turn it off when leaving home day time
Just press the little round off button in normal operating mode. Tech support is on 0300 130 1299 if you need any help.
You probably won’t see this but I can’t get the power button to come up! When I hold it down a key appears as if it’s locked in some way? Can you help?
Power button on the DTS92E? It will come apart and can be fixed, but its not so easy to do.
I can’t get my thermostat to go into the cont mode as your describe. The down button does not do anything
Is the thermostat a DT92E or DT90E (should say under the batteries)?
I don’t have a box to connect my thermostat to. We have a key coming up and we can’t turn the heating on via the thermostat
Technical support can be contacted on 0300 130 1299 option 3 if you are having issues beyond what is covered in this video.
Should the green light on the relay box be always on ?
No, only when there is a demand from the thermostat.
Sounds stupid but I cannot work our how to open it to check / change battery ! It keeps turning off.
Front flap just pulls off to expose the batteries.
Perfect
