Ring Doorbell Pro 2 won’t ring my indoor chime
hardwired-video-doorbell

Installed the Ring Doorbell Pro 2. The wiring is all correct at the doorbell as well as the pro power kit.I have checked and rechecked my wiring. I don’t have Alexa as an option to answer the doorbell and the device is properly configured for a mechanical in-house chime. The doorbell works fine. However, immediately after connecting the doorbell pro 2, my in-house chime no longer works when the doorbell is pressed!! WTH?! How do I get my in-house chime back?!?

      Removed the propack and it does not ring the internal chime. The chime was working fine before the ring doorbell pro 2 install.

      As mentioned in my original post, I tried that initially. And it’s already set to enable mechanical chime. BUT…..will try again. Tried it…no change. Also, when I took off the power kit, the interval chime began to hum very loud. Didn’t sound like a good thing.

    Newer door bell and specifically video door bell pro do not work well with an house chime. Especially if the chime is electronic,. I do not even bother with house chime, just use the transformer for power and get a ring plug in chime.

      I appreciate that comment and the recommendation around the chime pro. I do have a chime pro. But I prefer my internal chime and frankly I think it’s misleading at best of Ring to advertise their doorbells as compatible and at the very least should level set expectations if their are issues with internal chimes. If I hadn’t already paid for and installed the device I’d take it back. But here I am with a doorbell that doesn’t ring the internal house chime.

    Hi @user40724. First, what type of Chime Kit do you have? Are you using Pro Power Kit V3? Can you share a picture of your Chime Kit, doorbell transformer and wires going to your Ring Pro 2? This will help me diagnose your concern.
