No power to thermostat - DIY Home Improvement, Remodeling ...

i woke up and my heat wasnt working., cheacked the thermostat no power so checked the breaker box outside heatpump was tripped and it wouldnt reset. so i went outside and pulled the disconnect at the heatpump after that i could reset the breaker but ofcourse there still wouldnt be power to the heatpump. the airhandler in the attic isnt tripped so i have hope that i can just run off of the emrgency heat till a repair man can come. but so far i havnt had any luck getting it to come on. i put batteries in the thermostat instead of relying on the wall power and it has power now but still nothing will come on not even the fan just blowing cold air.

is what im trying even possible without power to the outside unit. or was my set up wired incorrectly my house is only a year old. i have a goodman brand heatpump with a basic honeywell electronic thermostat. i will post more info on the model of the heatpump in the morning.

any help with getting atleast some heat would be greatly appreciated
