Rittenhouse Service & Repair Forum

I am looking for a wiring diagram for a Rittenhouse, Spartan Electric, Fayettevile NC C8845 unit which is 30 to 35 years old. It seems to be either able to use two D cells or 16V transformer but I am got sure how to wire it up. Any ideas? Thanks.

We need to replace the long tubes on these chimes. They are look bad and we have lost one of them. Do you have the 4 tubes to replace the old ones with? If so, how much are they? Patsy

My manual says 4-8 Note Chime Models (534, 535, 552, 577, 618, 633). I don't know which one I have. It has long chime tubes and a clock on top. The door bell works great, but the clock doesn't.
