LiftMaster K29-25-3 330-Ohm Resistor — 5W, 5% Tolerance
The LiftMaster K29-25-3 is the resistor service reference identified as 330 ohms, 5 watts and 5 percent tolerance. Those three ratings describe different electrical characteristics and all must match the approved circuit requirement. Select it by the exact operator service information rather than resistor appearance, a shortened resistance value or an assumption that any higher-wattage electronic component is an equivalent replacement. Select the replacement by the complete part number and the installed equipment configuration. A similar photograph or a shared LiftMaster brand name does not establish interchangeability. Confirm the applicable service drawing before ordering so the repair addresses the correct component and its related mounting, connection and operating requirements.
Compatibility — Models, Versions and Exclusions
| Model or selection point | Compatibility requirement |
|---|---|
| Specified operator circuit | Use where the approved parts information calls for K29-25-3. |
| Other resistance values | Not equivalent merely because the body looks alike. |
| Power and tolerance | Verify all stated ratings and required physical arrangement. |
| Circuit bypasses | Do not use this resistor to conceal a fault or defeat supervision. |
Identify the Assembly and Plan the Repair
Resistance, power rating and tolerance must be considered together with the actual circuit and mounting. A resistor can operate at elevated temperature in its intended application, so the technician must preserve the documented clearances and connection arrangement. Do not infer an allowable supply voltage or circuit location from the 5W rating alone.
A failed resistor can be a symptom of another electrical fault or abnormal load. Inspect the surrounding board and wiring before replacing the component so the underlying cause is addressed. Use the specified service item and approved procedure rather than experiment with alternate values to make the operator respond.
An electrical symptom does not identify the failed component by itself. Have qualified service personnel inspect the supply, wiring, connections and equipment condition before replacing parts. Record existing labels and terminal references with power safely isolated. A replacement should restore the documented circuit arrangement; it should not be used to change operating voltage, defeat a protective function or compensate for a mechanical load that the equipment cannot safely move.

This offer identifies the resistor service item. A complete circuit board, wiring harness, heat-management assembly, power supply and operator are not established as included. Confirm the current resistor package and any separately required connection or mounting pieces for the approved application.
Safety Warnings — Read Before Installation or Service
- WARNING: Electrical service can expose hazardous voltage and moving equipment. Use qualified service personnel and electrical personnel where required.
- Disconnect every applicable mains, battery and auxiliary supply before work. Follow the equipment instructions for stored energy and safe isolation.
- Do not bypass grounding, overload protection, monitored safety devices or fire-control functions to make the equipment operate. Diagnose the underlying fault.
- Restore covers and wiring protection, then complete the model-specific functional and safety checks before returning the installation to normal use.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is 330 ohms the same as 330 kilohms?
No. The identified value is 330 ohms. Do not substitute a different resistance magnitude.
Does 5W describe motor power?
No. It is the resistor’s power rating and does not identify the operator’s motor capacity.
Can I use another tolerance?
Use the exact approved service specification. This reference is identified with a 5 percent tolerance.
Will replacing it fix every board fault?
No. Diagnose the surrounding circuit and correct any cause of overload or heat damage before completing the repair.
