When we changed outside door bell button, we lost the bell tone and have only the buzzer. How do we get a nice tone back?

I'm guessing that the old push button was either dim or not lit at all, and new outside push button glows... If that's the case, I think your transformer is a bit weak, possibly due to the slight increase in load with new button's light. Buzzing is a key clue - the solenoid (electrically powered plunger whose motion would cause the ding dong) is sitting there vibrating, instead of moving cleanly. Assuming your doorbell is a 16V model, Nutone makes a slightly more powerful doorbell transformer, model C907 (Sold on Amazon) - this one can handle two or three doorbells, so it has enough oomph to handle normal loads... Changing a transformer may require a licensed electrician in your area, so please proceed with caution. Good luck!

On the back of the door bell if you take a small flat head screwdriver and put it in the little slot on top or underneath which ever direction you have the doorbell installed. You can push the tab and slide the outer cover off and take out the old battery and put a new one in and then just slide it back into place again. You never need to unscrew the back panel. It is a simple little latch you just have to push up or down depending which direction you have the little flat slat openning on. I hope this was helpful. :)

The Swann SW244-BVD with Video comes with an external buzzer/door bell incorporated in the part you mount outside that replaces your current doorbell. when this "New" doorbell is pressed, you will hear it just like your old doorbell and you will also see a live video of the person outside at your front doorstep.

pry off the back of the transmitter (the doorbell button thing) by putting a screwdriver in the slot in the side. Note the polarity before you take it out so you can put it in the same way.

The button you push can not ne changed, but the plate below that says "doorbell" can be changed.

I had no trouble in changing sound on both the extended plug in or battery operated, Suggest you call them. There is a unit that sits above the original hard wire door bell.

I am not sure, but I don't think there was a button. I reused my old button to avoid getting wires through walls. Unit works fine, bells weaker than the 35 year old unit it replaced, they don't make them like they used to.

The nobby rocker switch can be tapped or held down until max volume is reached. If that doesn't work, try turning up the volume level on your phone before sending back the Jabra! I don't know how old yours is. If it is new, you should get a replacement. Hope this helps. Good luck!

I have to be honest, I haven't had it installed yet. A couple of electricians that I had come had problems with it because I do not have a door buzzer for the doorbell. I also needed to purchase an adaptor for it, and I still don't have it in yet. I think if I didn't need it to connect to my door bell, it would be OK.

Those are my sentiments exactly. I installed the alarm a little over a year ago and have looked around for something with a louder audible but have been unsuccessful in finding anything that will resolve the weak electronic chime that comes with the system. Maybe if the manufacturer gets enough requests for a louder more distinctive sound they will provide a replacement or at least market a chime that's louder

Just turn it to the loudest setting, if not then just get a ding, ding bell. Why get a horn this loud if you turn it down. You want it loud, it might save your life.

I bought two of these and they both had the same defect. With so many others who have had the same issue, I'd bet any new one will be cracked. If you really want to try to replace the bell, I would do a google search to see if you can find customer service info.

In our case it was the switch on the dashbord that had a lose wire! Both whistles work fine after several years and many uses. Hope you find a solution.

Theres a sticky pad on the back of the door bell. The speaker part has a little notch in the back. I hung it on a thumb tack. Sticky pad doesn't come off real clean though, so don't put it on paint.

You have the option to change chime by inserting or removing the little pin. This device is so simple - just install the battery. plug-in the bell and glue the bell button outside. That is all you need to do.

Alarm beeping? Replace battery. Give it a day to self adjust. Still beeping? Replace with another fresh battery, push the test button. Give it another day to adjust. Still beeping. Push test button. Then give it a day to stew. Still beeping? Replace battery, push test button, smack it against the ceiling once. Give it another day to consider. Still beeping? Replace with a battery from unopened package, whack it with a screwdriver, shake it, yell at it, roughly twist it into place with some kind of verbal ultimatum. Give it another day. Still beeping? Continue with the methods I have written for you and expand using your imagination. Generally works about the 6th or 7th go around. Lemonbalm
