Accessing Repeater Field from another page

I hope I am not creating a thread that has been used before.

I have a site that has a homepage and a services page. The services page has ACF Field group called Services and a repeater field called Service. They display perfectly on the Services page however I want to also display them on the homepage.

I have tried doing

<?php
if( have_rows('service', 'services') ):

	while( have_rows('service', 'services') ): the_row();
	
		$service_title = get_sub_field('service_title');
		$service_short_text = get_sub_field('service_short_text');
		$service_graphic = get_sub_field('service_graphic');
		$service_link = get_sub_field('service_link');
		$service_display = get_sub_field('service_display');
		
		// I output these variables in the loop here
		echo $service_title;
		
		// And others go below
	
	endwhile;
					
endif; 
?>

Nothing shows up.

Any ideas? It is probably straight forward but am starting to feel stooopid here.

Thanks in advance.

Okay. Worked it out.

I needed to change

if( have_rows('service', 'services') ):
while( have_rows('service', 'services') ): the_row();

to

if(get_field('service', 7)):
while(has_sub_field('service', 7)):

the second variable needs to be the post id not the page name.

Found the code on the ACF documentation.
http://www.advancedcustomfields.com/resources/how-to/how-to-get-values-from-another-page/

Under the heading: Working with the Repeater Field.

I thought I had read the page all the way through.
Hope it helps others.
