Nest wired doorbell. Does your original chimes work?

[Chrisjb]

Will this unit also trigger the original door chime?  This information is not given anywhere.  Also, a wiring diagram would be invaluable and answer most questions.  Some of us know what we are doing!

If it doesn't trigger the existing chime, it will be returned.  I shouldn't have to ask this to be honest.

Our Google Nest Hello Doorbells trigger our original mechanical chime.

Your doorbell's transformer needs to meet the requirements described here:

This thread in this community has a wiring diagram for wiring the Chime Connector for one doorbell and one chime.  If you search this forum, you can find diagrams for other scenarios:
