Rittenhouse Service & Repair Forum
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. Another alternative I would like to explore, if another brand unit can be used.
