Every once in a while my door bell does not work and doesn't seem to get power. Usually it is working again on its own a few hours later. The last time I noticed it was not working, I wiggled the wires on the transformer to see if they were loose and it started working again, so I tightened the screws on the transformer, but then it quit, so I wiggled the wires again and it has been working since. If it is a bad connection, why can it go for months or even years without a problem? The transformer is in a place where nothing ever makes contact with it.
