My current doorbell chime wiring does not match any of those listed in the install app. It has two wires coming from the front doorbell and three power related wires. How would I connect the power kit to this?

I spent some time chatting with Arlo support and sent them more photos. Finally determined our chime is incompatible with Arlo Video Doorbell. Returning it to Amazon.

 

I then looked at some Ring installation videos and it appears to be incompatible as well.

 

So, I think I'd have to swap out the chime which I'm not in the mood to do.

I am having this exact same issue with the exact same nicor chime. Were you able to figure it out?

Just be careful...the black and white wire may be 120vac, green is ground  ( red and white 18v ac )

You may need a voltmeter to confirm as it appears the transformer is built in

Looks at the spec sheet;
