This problem may be caused by a lighted doorbell. After the bell is wrung, the light will re-illuminate. When that happens it may be drawing just enough power to make the door chimes think that the button was pressed once again. This is a repeating pattern.If a lighted door button is used, the solution is to either replace the button with a non-lighted version, or open the button and disconnect the light inside it.Yes, I had this problem myself. I had replaced an old doorbell button with a new, lighted one. I ripped out the tiny light inside and it worked fine after that.— Purchase or Repair:

I have a 30 year old rittenhouse door chime with the 4 sequential chimes, one of the plungers has gone lazy. I took the transformer out to try to clean it and lost the little spring that gives the plunger resistance . Do you have any ideas ?Or do you sell parts, perhaps a whole tansformer. I tried to find a similar spring,with no succes. Thank you D Carini.— Purchase or Repair:

My dad just passed away and Im moving his Rittenhouse Westminster clock/chime from his place to mine before selling the house. I believe it is a model 631 or 632 but Im not sure - WHERE CAN I FIND THE MODEL NUMBER? (Ive seen pics of what appear to be identical units labeled 631/632).Ive got it hooked up and the basic functions seem to be working - ie front doorbell and westminster chimes.However, as a kid, I seem to remember this thing also chiming on the hour and perhaps, single notes on the quarter hour, but it doesnt do that any more. Am I imagining things or has dad disabled this function somehow?I do see two screws on the extreme upper-right of the circuit board that have a jumper installed. Whats that for?Lastly, Id like to install a 2nd door bell in the basement (I work at home, in my office basement and cant hear the main bell all the time). Before installing the Rittenhouse, I just had two bells wired together in parallel, but when I tried to do this with the Rittenhouse, it just triggered the chimes. What is the terminal marked EXT FRONT for?Thanx....— Purchase or Repair:

I have an old Rittenhouse door chime that is missing its tubular bells. Home built in 1932. Chime cover has two decorative brass musical notes and a few horizontal brass what look like pinstripes.

Tag on door chime unit says:Model 8846RVolt 16Rittenhouse Division Spartan ElectricFayetteville NC 28386The unit has four tubes, it has a circuit board with integrated circuits. The transformer is putting out 18.5 volts, although the unit says 16 volts on transformer and circuit board. I assume the board has gone bad. I like the unit, I am wondering if a replacement board is available or can you fix the current one.

Front and back door bells. I need a diagram showing how to connect the wires from the doorbells. Front works with one wire from Front doorbell going to Terminal B and the other going to Front in the 16 VAC group. I assumed one wire would go from Back doorbell to Terminal A and the other to Back in the 16 VAC group, but the doorbell is not getting power.— Purchase or Repair:
