Rittenhouse Service & Repair Forum

Installed in 1987 when we built the house. Has begun sporadic multiple, single dings, all hours, day and night. I have replaced, back up battery and fuse in motor. Now makes a fairly loud buzzing sound also. Thoughts?

Hi, I have a Rittenhouse 330 Chime that is not working. Is there a way to get a rough estimate of cost? It may be the transformer or the hammers as they are sticky.David

This is a two unit intercom and door opener for apartments. Presently, it has current but buzzes the door open without pushing the switch, and has no voice tones.

Model# S7808. The detector has been making loud clicks, usually two at a time. What does this mean? Replace it or cleaning. Please help very annoying.

I bought a house built in 1950 with an old Rittenhouse door chime, Model #365. I have no idea if it can be repaired. I don\'t have the front door button. The inner workings are very dirty. Do you think it\'s worth sending to you? Thanks, Kathie
