2 chimes and a lot of wires! How to install?

[PVG]

 

Looking for info on how to install a second generation wired Nest doorbell. I have 2 chimes and 2 standard doorbell buttons (front and back/basement entrances). One chime has 6 wires (near the front door where I want to install the Nest doorbell), and one with three (back/basement). Where does the chime connector go?

@PVG 

The chime with 6 wires is probably connected directly to your doorbells and the second chime is chained to that one. The second wires on the "REAR", "TRANS", and "FRONT" on the 6-wire chime are probably running to your second chime in the basement. So you could try connecting the "chime puck" to the chime with 6 wires, connecting to the "FRONT" and "TRANS" posts if you're installing a doorbell for the front door.

Hi folks,

Checking in — have you tried the wiring installation that was shared by MplsCustomer? If so, how did it go? Let me know if you need anything else.

I appreciate your help, MplsCustomer.
