LiftMaster 1345, 1346, 1355, 1356 Chain Parts

LiftMaster 1345, 1346, 1355 and 1356 Replacement Parts

This page covers the 1345, 1346, 1355 and 1356 chain drive openers. Everything for them is here: the motor unit, the gear and sprocket, the rail and chain, the safety sensors, the door hardware, the wall control and the remote. Each section has its own diagram, and the reference numbers are specific to the diagram directly above them.

Motor runs but the door does not move? On these openers that is almost always the gear and sprocket assembly — the nylon gear strips. It is part 041C4220A, it fits most LiftMaster chain drives, and we stock it in both factory and aftermarket versions. See section 2.

Two motor options. Ref 12 is the 1/2 HP motor and bracket; the 041D5563 is the 3/4 HP. Check the horsepower on your motor unit label and order to match. 041A2817 is called out twice, at 03 and 18 — the same gear kit either way. The capacitor is the K030B0532-1; the older 30B366 is discontinued and this replaces it.

Two parts we cannot currently supply. The receiver logic boards for these models — 41A5021, 041A5021-1M-315 and 041A5021-i — are all discontinued with no replacement. The 41A3583-15 cover for the 1345 and 1346 is also unavailable; the 41A3583-11 above fits the 1355 and 1356 only, so do not order it for a 1345 or 1346. Everything else on this diagram is available. Call (866) 965-5599 if you need either of these and we will tell you what your options are.

2. Gear and Sprocket — Factory or Aftermarket

The nylon gear on the 041C4220A is the most common failure on these openers, and the part fits most LiftMaster chain drives. If the motor runs and the door does not move, this is what to order. We stock both the genuine LiftMaster assembly and a lower cost aftermarket version built to the same dimensions.

Part # Description Factory (OEM) Aftermarket
041C4220A Gear and sprocket assembly Factory assembly Aftermarket assembly

Fit the new gear with the opener disconnected from the door, and grease the worm before reassembly — running it dry is what strips the next one. The 041A2817 gear kit is the alternative if only the gear itself has failed.

3. Rail, Chain and Trolley

03 041A4813 Cable pulley bracket All

17 4178B0034B Straight door arm section All
041A8094 Door arm kit — curved and straight sections together All

The chain assembly is sized to your door height. Measure the door opening, not the rail. A slack chain can usually be re-tensioned rather than replaced — replace it if links are stiff, the cable is frayed, or the chain has jumped the sprocket. Browse all chain and master links.

It covers 371LM, 971LM, 973LM and 893LM, and is the listed substitute for 81LM, 83LM, 63LM, 753CB, 850CB, 853CB, 953CB, 953EV and Craftsman 53680, 53859 and 53879.
