Welcome to the Forum, @sweigl! :waving_hand:

I’ll start with this: :warning::high_voltage:  I am not an electrician.  :high_voltage::warning:

Including the photo is helpful, and I appreciate how large and clear it is! Thanks for that! :+1:

The buzz is annoying, and I want to try to understand what your current experience is and what your goal is, so I have some questions:

  1. Your topic title says, “No chime…”, but then your post says, “Everything works fine….” Describing more about your experience would be helpful, like does the chime sound at all when Video Doorbell v2’s button is pressed?
  2. Do you have buttons (one now being Video Doorbell v2) at both the front and rear doors?
  3. If you have two buttons, then what happens when each is pressed?
  4. What was the configuration/experience prior to installing Video Doorbell v2? In other words, did you have two “dumb” buttons and did both of those actuate the mechanical chime as expected and without extraneous noise?
  5. Do you hear a buzzing sound constantly or only when a button is pressed?
  6. Is the desire to have the doorbell button press make the chime ring the FRONT door sound? With these two-button chimes, what’s wired to the REAR terminal typically produces only a single tone (“ding” instead of “ding-dong”) so that people within the home can tell which button has been pressed and which door to answer.
  7. If you want the Video Doorbell v2 to ring the FRONT sound, then would you still want a doorbell button to also ring REAR?
  8. What’s the current transformer’s rated specifications? You would typically see this stamped or engraved somewhere in the transformer’s housing, and it should show one number for V AC (or more likely just V) and another for VA. For instance, the transformer I’ve used to power my Video Doorbell v2 is rated 16 V AC, 10 VA (though I’ve consistently measured in excess of 18 V from it).
  9. Do you have a multimeter? As a non-electrician who likes DIY stuff, I’ve gotten a lot of use out of an inexpensive multimeter that has served me well for a number of years and has been tremendously helpful in troubleshooting my own Video Doorbell v2 issues.
  10. If you have a multimeter, then what voltage do you measure at the transformer and at Video Doorbell v2’s wiring location?

Your post and photo also make me think of another recent topic: Possible to have a regular doorbell on one door and Doorbell v2 on the other?. That one still seems to be an open question, though as I’ve said in that topic my experience so far is only with mechanical chimes, so I would expect a solution to your issue to be much more straightforward.
