Rittenhouse Service & Repair Forum

Is there a new updated unit (with new bells & whistles) that can use the existing wiring and wall recesses of the old units. If so, where can I get them and what would be a ballpark pricing? Thanks

The standard 2-tone doorbell is in the hall. The base unit is in the kitchen. The remote intercom at the front door. The button on the door unit rings the doorbell and is a hands-free unit to talk to the base unit.Oh yeah, there is also a door release button scabbed in to the base unit. and extra wires coming from the door unit to the door frame (but no door release mechanism.Any ideas on schematics for something like this???Thx, Gary

Do you have any parts for Rittenhouse (Emerson) All Transistor Radio-Intercom System, Model RM-1 (AM radio) or RM-2 (AM/FM radio)? Our system dates from the 1960\'s--still going strong. But I need knobs and especially the instruction manual because I don\'t know how to answer and use the exterior Door station (or for visitors to talk to me). Maybe a manual for another vintage Rittenhouse model would have useful instructions? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Diane Reichard in Princeton, NJ ~~ dpreichard@att.net

4 out of 10 times whenever I press the button it works.How do I know if the transformer that needs replacement or if the wiring itself that went wrong? I have replaced the button and it should not be the problem itself.How much would it cost if you send someone to fix it?Thanks.—> …Purchase or Repair: ...4 out of 10 times whenever I press the button it works.How do I know if the transformer that needs replacement or if the wiring itself that went wrong?

I believe it is a model 631 or 632 but I\'m not sure - WHERE CAN I FIND THE MODEL NUMBER? (I\'ve seen pics of what appear to be identical units labeled 631/632).I\'ve 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 doesn\'t 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. What\'s that for?Lastly, I\'d like to install a 2nd door bell in the basement (I work at home, in my office basement and can\'t 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....
