    My ring doorbell 2 is doing the same, brand new. I bypassed the ring doorbell and touched the wires together and everything works. With a multimeter it’s as though The contacts aren’t closing. Debating on taking it apart to see how it’s put together.

      Ours is older, but has never worked properly.Live is fine and it says its all set up in the health check so just don't know. We connect through a chime Pro but only ever get max 50 so not a good picture :frowning:

        Max 50% battery? If so what I have had to do was the following: originally had a 10/16volt 10va traditional transformer and it was too weak, tried a 16v 30va and still had a hard time charging or maintaining above 54%. Removed the doorbell and brought inside the house and fully charged it up. Replaced transformer with a 24volt 40 va transformer and has been now maintaining battery life usually at 100% unless there’s been a lot of motion or live views. It’s been a process, not to figure out why I can’t get the doorbell contacts to close lol.

        Did you find out what was wrong with your doorbell?
