Hello @mjholbrook4 ,

This is extremely concerning. If you haven't already, and if you're able, we strongly suggest disabling the doorbell circuit.

I have requested a call from an senior specialist to reach out and take care of you as soon as possible.

@davey_d​ thank you I appreciate it. I spoke to a customer service girl this morning as I called in. and she was not helpful at all. Told me to get an electrician. I turned my circuit breaker off in the meantime.
