I have 6 wires comming out of the wall 3 red 3 white, 1 white is hot and one red is hot. I have a front and back bell that go to the chime box. In the chime box there are 3 screws a front, back and transform screw. How do I figure which wire goes where? I would really appreciate your help.

I have buzzer in one room and a chime in another. Two wires from transformer— two wires from front door button—two wires from buzzer. How do I tie them all in so that when I push the button both the chime and buzzer sound. the chime has three terminals (Transformer—front—rear—). The buzzer has one terminal and four mounting screws not grounded.
