If you can get a recording of this noise, that will help confirm what this noise is.

Basically, we need to hear the tone and increments of the chime in order to figure out what the possible issue is.

However, if we have no warning lights to go along with the noise then more than likely the GEM has failed.

I am attaching the info below on how to replace the GEM as well as I suspect this is going to be the issue.

So please run through the info attached and let me know what you find.

Thanks
