You didn't say if the doorbell works. If the wires are tiny, then it is low voltage and there is no need to turn off the breaker to replace the button or the doorbell. The doorbell and the button are most likely powered by a transformer that is probably located in the attic near the attic access panel. If you don't want to pay $150 for a new doorbell, you can buy a wireless doorbell and install it yourself. Another option is to replace the button with a Ring device, which will provide a bell and a camera.
