Constant Door Chime

[Keith Strehle]

Yes it stops when disconnected from the switch. I don't know what an
SPST switch is but yes it only rings once when the wires are touched
together. I figured I bought a bad switch but same thing happened
with the second new switch. I bought the switches at Home Depot.

So you think if I reverse the wires it might work?

Unfortunately I popped the fuse while I was fooling around with it.
Now I gotta go look for the fuse...
