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.

Is it possible to purchase just a cover from you or is something like this no longer available. Amazon has one but the mfg. dimensions wouldn't fit. As close as I can measure where the unit is installed on the wall are approx. 6 1/2 in.x 8 1/2 x 2". Can you help, or perhaps give me some info. as to where I might be able to find one.Thanks for any help. Have a good day.Kathy Grant

It was custom built in 1983 with many upgrades that were available at that time. Unfortunately since we have lived here the system does not work. The main unit is 17\' wide and 9\" tall. There are 12 units scattered throughout the house. They each measure 7.5\" tall by 8\" wide. I think what we have may be on the large size as far as the measurements of each room speaker and the main system as well. because of this we are afraid we are looking at a major renovation to replace it. New drywall and all that. Is there a possibility that it can be repaired or does Rittenhouse have a replacement that would fit? Please advise.Thank you,Marie Gunderman

Hey there, I've been tasked with looking into an issue with a Rittenhouse C8578-1 135-7351-01 door chime. I don't usually work on hardware like this, so I could really use some guidance on how to fix or replace it. Any help or advice you can provide would be greatly appreciated.
