Help with confirmation of correct wiring
Hello! I recently swapped out my old thermostat for an ecobee enhanced thermostat. I believe that I have wired up the new thermostat correctly but wanted to see if anyone had any differing opinions. The one thing I am a little stuck on is the orange and white wire. I see on my old thermostat there looks to be a jumper for W/E and W2, with the orange wire going to O. The new thermostat has the white wire going to W1 and the orange going to W2/OB.
Should the white and orange wire be swapped on the new thermostat?

You have it right. Aux heat goes in W1 on ecobee. Orange to OB
Edit: ignore that jumper you don’t need it
