I'm trying to replace a wired doorbell but after nearly 40 years of
(concealed) expose to extremes of temperatures the wire is fragile.
One terminal is just long enough to connect but I can see a crack in
the cable, the other is now too short, there are cracks in the cable
and the wire that I exposed earlier has already broken off.
Has anyone any ideas on how to proceed, and restore the function of
the wired bell, or must I abandon it in favour of a battery device?
I've had to remove the bell and protect what remains of the wire from
the elements with a piece of Duck tape.
Thanks in advance.
