Video Doorbell Pro 2 Bypass Mechanical Chime

Hello, I have a pro 2 but my mechanical chime was not on the approved list. I have a power unit v3 which has no bypass holes, so per another post, I just bypassed by removing the Ring v3 power unit, and the wires off the chime screws, and just connected the ‘transformer’ wire to the ‘front’ wire (in other words, connected Ring directly across the transformer in effect). Everything was working, and voltage was good (about 20V) tested with my multimeter, and what the app said. However, after a few hours the Ring just totally disconnected, with no light on the front on, and even after resetting breaker, never could get it working again. One thing though is I did forget to disable the mechanical chime in my device settings, would that cause an issue like this? Anything else from my information here that can cause this?
