I have a very old 30's or 40's wall phone that requires a seperate ringer box that I bought form an old phone guy who said it would work with my phone. I thought it would be easy to set up but I was wrong. Where can I find wiring diagrams?

I've looked at some pictures and my best guess is, it's a WE 102. I also have a WE 201 which, unless I'm mistaken, will work with the same ringer box.

The round-base B-type handset mounting, and the oval-base D-type handset mounting, commonly (and incorrectly) called the "102" and "202" are desk telephones, when wired into the appropriate subset (ringer box.) As an example, the wiring scheme for a D- mounting can be either "102" or "202". They are not wall telephones. The 201, 211 and 212 are wall phones (more precisely, as above, handset mountings, either C- or G-types) and they, too, require a subset. Take a look at this website, https://www.paul-f.com/weHandsetMountings.htmlscroll down all the way, and then tell us what you have. Then we can help you get the phone working properly. There is sidetone wiring and anti-sidetone wiring, and those determine how many conductors are required in the cord that interconnects the handset mounting and the subset.
