You need to go over the circuit with a multimeter.
But at a guess the push button used jammed in the on position. Neither the bell or transformer may be rated for continuous load so something cut out. Most probably a fuse on the output side of the transformer which is possibly a 20mm glass type. If there is no fuse the transformer may have a heat detector which is non resettable. But as I said you need to check carefully with a multimeter.
