Chamberlain Garage Door Opener Parts
Keep your opener running safely with genuine Chamberlain replacement parts. Match parts by your opener’s model number (motor head label) and, if applicable, the learn button color (green, amber/orange, purple) or frequency noted in the manual.
Common Chamberlain replacement items:
- Remote controls and wireless keypads
- Photo eyes (safety sensors) and wiring
- Wall controls and accessories
- Logic (control) boards and receiver boards
- Gear & sprocket kits (chain-drive)
- Trolley/traveler, covers, and mounting hardware
Note: Some parts for older models may be discontinued. When an exact part is unavailable, consider a universal receiver kit to restore remote/keypad functionality or evaluate a full opener upgrade.
FAQs – Chamberlain Opener Parts
How do I find the right part for my Chamberlain opener?
Locate the model number on the motor housing and check your learn button color. Use both to match the compatible parts listed on the product page.
Are Chamberlain parts interchangeable with LiftMaster or Craftsman?
Many are cross-compatible because they’re made by the Chamberlain Group, but always confirm compatibility by model before ordering.
My door only closes when I hold the wall button. What should I replace?
This usually points to photo eye (safety sensor) issues. Verify alignment and wiring; replace sensors if the indicator lights won’t stay solid.
The opener powers on but won’t respond to remotes/keypads. Is it the logic board?
It could be a failing logic board or receiver. Confirm sensor status and try reprogramming remotes first; if issues persist, inspect/replace the board.
What if my original part is discontinued?
Use a universal external receiver to pair new remotes/keypads, or consider upgrading the opener if multiple components are failing.
