Yeah if the fans not coming on then it damn near has to be a problem with the thermostat or furnace(and in my experience usually something with the circuit board), but I'm not an AC tech either so going by what I've experienced too
I just bought a Honeywell thermostat about 6 months ago. It's nothing fancy. Just a standard programmable one that cost about $40. I checked the batteries and it's lit up like everything is fine. But watch that end up being the problem.
This is what happened to be me recently. Took a $3 part and k was up and running. Mine isn’t Trane though.

They can go out even if fairly new. Plus, the wiring into the wall unit behind the thermostat can be compromised causing a lack of contact.I just bought a Honeywell thermostat about 6 months ago.

I'm going to check the fuses later tonight or early tomorrow morning. If that's the issue then I can just cancel my service call.
Yeah I had a lightning storm that took out ours a couple years ago is why I know about it
If you have a volt meter, you can pull the thermostat off the wall and make sure you're getting 24 volts to the thermostat. That will tell you if it's a wiring issue to or from your thermostat.
I'll give that a try now.
I would check that wiring. It should look like this with your thermostat off the wall...
Yeah my wiring is different. I have 6 different wires.
Hmm, not sure at this point, brother. I was hoping we could save you a hundo.
You've helped a lot. At least we've narrowed it down.
Some thermostats aren't designed for 6 wire configurations. One of your wires should be putting out juice too if you have a c wire.
I really have no idea what I'm talking about except past experience in trying to trouble shoot mine in the past. There are contactors out in the main unit outside that may not be pulling in as well. But, I'm quite sure it's dark there and I would bet you don't want to try and dig into that. But, if you do, the contactor looks like a plastic piece that is only called into contact when 24v is sent to it. It is right next to the compressor normally.
Yep that's the piece that when it gets the signal from the thermostat pulls down the contact and engages the compressor, it's the one I've had ants in before that stopped it from making contact
Same. I have had the same thing happen in the contactor on my pressure switch for my well. I had a piece of leaf (no, I'm not kidding) get between the two contacts and I lost water. 24v, man.
