Front door button will only ring one time. Side door button will only ring one time. Want front door to ring two times (ding-dong). Don\'t see how to wire it right.

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.

I know this chime assembly is very old but is there a replacement kit for the hammers. they are sticking and perhaps the springs are just too soft. I\'d appreciate any help you can give me.
