Minor scare after replacing thermostat battery

Reading Time: < 1 minute

Last Updated on February 18, 2026 by stlplace

After I changed the battery (2 AA batteries) it seems it got stuck in the “starting soon” and I did a google Emerson thermostat starting soon reset

It eventually restarted after I flip the power switch (downstairs) and reset the controllers (the thermostat) couple times.
