I know you all have taught this old dog on this one before but I can't find the answer and sadly have to ask again.  I have a Bell 500 that won't ring, don't think its a Freq ringer but recall I may need to switch a wire since I'm using a biscuit and the 2 wire modular jack.  Can anyone assist please?  Thank you.

Move the ringer lead on the elevated terminal (GND, Yellow arrow) to the terminal with the green wire (L1, green arrow).

Or, if the yellow line wire is connected (can't see) simply tie the yellow and green wires together at the wall interface.

Works perfectly, tied the yellow and green together in the biscuit, works and rings like a charm. Great advise...Enjoy the weekend!
