They appear to be 1w resistors but size isn't always a good indicator of power handling. Buy the highest wattage resistor that will fit in the allotted space. Digikey or mouser will have a suitable replacement.

Thank you PB! Are saying I can use this resistor as a replacement?

If you can get the leads in the board without doing any damage and it will fit (likely only standing), it will work but you don't need anything that large. Looking at the board photo, I'd suggest either a 1 or 2 watt (something similar in size to the original). From the photo, it appears that the body length (laying down) is limited to ~1/2 inch so that's likely a standard 1w or a miniature 2w.

The PPC2.7W-2CT-ND from digikey is a miniature 2w that should fit.

Thanks again PB, but I don't need 5,000 @ $521.25

The part number I posted had a quantity of 5 as the minimum.

My fault guy! I clicked on PPC2.7W-2TR-ND instead of PPC2.7W-2CT-ND. The site will not let me change the Country from CANADA to USA under the Shipping Address.

Change it when you first enter the site before you do anything else.
