Thanks!! I watched your KZitem video. Went to the local hardware store and spent $4.07 and replaced my doorbell. It made me feel a lot better since it cost me $180.00 earlier in the day to have a plumber install a wax ring under my leaking toilet. Something I am sure I could have done for $8.67 if I had more self confidence. I will continue to follow you on KZitem

Knock knock all transformers are hidden knock knock all transformers are knock knock all transformers are hidden in a chime box. Ours are in the garage with supplies power to three bells. And our voltage is just 16 volts here in New York

So once there’s no low voltage coming from the transformer you took off the wires line side (120v) not knowing if it was hot or not. That’s a no no. Im an electrician but a lot of people on here are novice. Good way for them to get shocked. Always locate the breaker and shut it off for safety reasons. Make sure you check the wires with a volt meter. Also never use an impact drill to tighten the screws for the transformer. Easy was to strip the screws.

Completely agree. Start taking wire nuts off without switching it off at the breaker? Someone's going to get hurt with this video.

Sebastian...what does is mean when you have to hold the doorbell button down for it ring completely. If I just push mine in like you normally would it doesn't ring. It has to be long pressed. Hopefully, you answer. Thanks.

Great demonstration on how to troublshoot a doorbell issue. I consider myself a handy guy & I've always been taught & since advocate the same & that is to start small & work towards the bigger problem as you did in this clip. I started with the doorbell button & low & behold it worked when the two wires crossed. Time to replace the doorbell button, thank you!!

We have had doorbell issues since lightning struck the pole outside our house. We lost a TV, Computer and the SKYBell video 2-way doorbell. Time to do something about it, the doorbell, after nearly 3 years. I had no clue the transformer was in the wall behind the chime. I thought they were all in the attic. You taught me something. Tomorrow I will start the trial and elimination and figure out what I do need. Thinking about going to The NEST HELLO doorbell.

If you got nothing when you checked with your multimeter, it's probably that you had cut the power before because you immediately proceeded to disconnect the transformer and, of course, you would'nt do that if you still had the power on.

Some people do not know.. If wired correctly for front and rear doorbell. The front door bell button should make the chime go ding dong.. The rear doorbell button should make the chime just go.. Ding.. So front door = ding dong Rear door = ding Again this will work like this if you have wired the buttons and chime correctly.
