The BendPak 5327120 electrical control component is the direct replacement for the BendPak lift it came off of. This is the genuine BendPak part — same fit and same working specification as the one already on your lift. Ordering the BendPak electrical control component from us gets you the OEM piece that matches the lift, not an aftermarket knock-off that is close but not the same.

Specifications

• Part number: 5327120
• Brand: BendPak
• Type: Genuine OEM electrical control component

The electrical system feeds the motor, and the motor drives the pump — so an electrical fault often looks like a hydraulic one and vice versa. A lift that won't rise might be a dead capacitor, a burned contactor, a tripped limit switch, or a pump that's seized and stalling the motor. The wiring, the switch, the contactor, the motor, and the pump are one chain; trace it in order instead of guessing.

The control gear — switch, contactor, overload, limit switches — is what makes the lift safe to operate, not just able to run. The button has to be hold-to-run so the lift stops when you let go; the overload has to trip before the motor cooks; the limit switch has to cut power at full height. When a control part fails, the risk isn't only a lift that won't work — it's a lift that won't stop when it should.

Replacing your electrical control component

Servicing the safety cutouts — limit switch, overhead shut-off, overload — is about confirming the lift stops on its own when it's supposed to, not just that it runs. Replace the failed device, then test each cutout deliberately. Since these are what make the lift safe to operate, the step-by-step procedure is worth following start to finish. Not sure on the procedure? Find your lift in our parts lookup or call and we will walk you through it.

Find the right part for your lift

If you are not sure this part matches your setup, the fastest check is the visual breakdown: open our parts lookup, pick your model, and match your part against the drawing where every item is numbered. Can't read the model plate? our guide to finding your model number shows exactly where it lives on each lift type, and we are a phone call away if you would rather have us confirm it.

Signs of an electrical fault

Test the safety cutouts, don't just assume they work. Run the lift to full height and confirm the up-limit switch cuts power where it should. If the lift has an overhead shut-off bar, trip it and confirm the lift stops. A limit switch that's bent, corroded, or bypassed is a safety defect — the lift has to stop on its own at the top and when the bar is hit.

Parts commonly replaced at the same time

Plan the electrical repair as a circuit, not a single part. The components around a failure often share its age, and doing them together while power is off is safer and cheaper than repeat visits. Give us your lift's configuration and we will assemble the matched set.

Safety notes

Before the cover comes off, the power comes off — and gets verified off. Lift controls tie the motor, the interlocks, and the shutoff together, so a careless connection can make a lift move when it should not. Match the diagram, respect the safety circuit, and get help on anything outside your comfort zone.

Before you order

Ordering tip: electrical components are specific to the lift's voltage and phase, so read the plate before you buy. A 208-230V single-phase lift and a three-phase version of the same model do not share the same contactor or motor. Send the markings off the old part and we will confirm the match.

Check your lift's serial before ordering

The most common reason a lift part comes back is not a defect — it is a revision mismatch. Manufacturers change sub-parts between production runs while keeping the same lift model name, so "it fits my lift model" is not always enough. The model plate carries the serial number that pins your lift to a specific run, and that is the number that settles which version of this part belongs on your lift.

Can't find the plate? Measure the old part — overall length, bolt-hole spacing, thread size on anything threaded — and photograph it from a couple of angles. Send that with your lift's brand and rough age and we will match it against the parts breakdowns we service from every week.
