Literally just did mine on Saturday.
Had the opposite issue, 22 years of exposure had gotten into the button interior and wires and connections had weathered/rusted.
Removed the old one, cleaned the copper wires leads with sandpaper, installed new doorbell button ($8 from Lowes)-- all good now.
And previous posters are right, it's a direct low voltage feed (and constant lead, thus the light is always on) you can mess with directly.
