Frigidaire FRT15B3AW3 refrigerator Parts

On your Frigidaire FRT15B3AW3 top-mount refrigerator, the model number is printed on the serial plate inside the fresh food (refrigerator) compartment. Open the refrigerator door and look along the interior side wall for the label; record the model number exactly as shown for parts and service.

We use the model number to match the correct parts list, diagrams, and troubleshooting info. On this model, the serial plate is located inside the refrigerator compartment.

• Open the fresh food door and scan the inside walls (typically left or right side)
• Look for a sticker or metal tag labeled Model Number and Serial Number
• Write the model number exactly, including all letters and numbers (example: FRT15B3AW3)
• Clean the serial plate gently with soap and water only so the printing stays readable
• Keep the model and serial number with your purchase records for future reference

Small character differences can change which door parts, shelves, or cooling components fit.

Using the exact model number helps us point you to the right diagrams and common replacement parts for this refrigerator, such as a door shelf rail, light bulb, or defrost component. If you are ordering parts, you can shop the parts list for FRT15B3AW3 on this page or search by model on Sears PartsDirect.

For the official location and record-keeping section, use the FRT15B3AW3 owner's manual.

The most common Frigidaire refrigerator problem is not cooling (fresh food section warm, freezer warming, or both). On the Frigidaire FRT15B3AW3 top-mount refrigerator, the fastest first checks are power, temperature control settings, airflow, and frost buildup; our FRT15B3AW3 owner's manual walks through these basics.

• Refrigerator not cooling or weak cooling: blocked vents, dirty condenser, or a failed cooling-air component
• Freezer frost buildup: defrost system issue (often a thermostat or heater problem)
• Runs constantly: doors not sealing, condenser dirty, vents blocked, or controls set too cold
• No interior light: bulb or door switch issue (unplug before replacing)

1. Confirm power: plug fully seated; check breaker or fuse (use a 15-amp time-delay fuse if applicable).
2. Check the temperature control: on this style, turning the control to “0” stops cooling but does not cut power to the light.
3. Give it time after changes: allow 24 hours for temperatures to stabilize after adjusting controls.
4. Improve airflow: do not overcrowd shelves; keep cold-air vents clear.
5. Reduce heat load: clean the condenser periodically and limit door openings.

If the refrigerator is warm, noisy, or has airflow issues, these model-matched parts are common suspects:

For broader parts shopping beyond the list for this model, we also support model search on Sears PartsDirect.

A refrigerator that is not cooling can spoil food quickly, and a unit that runs constantly wastes energy and can shorten compressor life. Starting with settings, airflow, and cleaning prevents unnecessary part replacement.

Frigidaire Gallery is a mid-range line; it is positioned above basic Frigidaire models with more features and styling, but it is not considered “high end” in the premium-luxury category. For your Frigidaire FRT15B3AW3 top-mount refrigerator, the best way to confirm exact features and care requirements is the FRT15B3AW3 owner's manual.

Frigidaire’s lineup is commonly grouped like this:

When customers say “high end,” they usually mean a combination of performance, materials, and feature set. Gallery models often add convenience and design upgrades, but they are still built to be attainable and serviceable.

Common “step-up” features you may see in Gallery models include:

• More precise temperature controls
• More storage flexibility (bins, shelves, drawers)
• Upgraded exterior styling and handles
• Quieter operation and improved lighting
• Added convenience features (varies by model)

The product line name (like Gallery) is less important than the exact model number when you are ordering parts or troubleshooting. Parts, wiring, and door hardware can vary widely even within the same brand family.

For example, if you are repairing a Frigidaire top-mount refrigerator like FRT15B3AW3, common service items include:

• Lighting (see refrigerator light bulb 316538904)
• Door bin rails (see Frigidaire refrigerator door shelf rail 240535101)
• Cooling airflow components (see refrigerator evaporator fan blade 5308000010)

Use this to decide your next step:

• If you want feature confirmation: check the FRT15B3AW3 owner's manual
• If you need replacement parts: order from the parts list for FRT15B3AW3, or search by model on Sears PartsDirect
• If you are troubleshooting cooling or noise: start with airflow and temperature control basics before replacing major sealed-system parts

Most 18 cubic foot top-mount refrigerators are about 30 inches wide, 66 inches tall, and 31 to 33 inches deep. For your Frigidaire FRT15B3AW3, we recommend confirming the exact cabinet and door-swing clearances in the FRT15B3AW3 owner's manual before measuring your space or planning delivery.

These are the most common exterior ranges for an 18 cu ft top-freezer refrigerator (dimensions vary by model and handle style):

• Width: 29 1/2 to 30 inches
• Height: 65 to 67 inches (to top of cabinet or hinge cover)
• Depth (doors closed): 31 to 33 inches
• Depth (doors open): often 55 to 60 inches depending on door stop angle

Measure the opening first, then compare to the refrigerator’s published dimensions.

• Measure width at the front and back of the opening (use the smaller number)
• Measure height to the lowest overhead cabinet or trim
• Measure depth from the back wall to the front edge of counters
• Add clearance for airflow and for the door to swing without hitting a wall
• If the unit sits on rollers/leveling feet, plan for minor height changes after leveling

A refrigerator that is even 1/2 inch too wide or too tall can be difficult to install, and insufficient door-swing clearance can make shelves and crisper drawers hard to access. The manual dimensions are the best match for your exact Frigidaire configuration.

You can also order model-specific replacement parts (like a Frigidaire refrigerator door shelf rail 240535101 or refrigerator light bulb 316538904) from the parts list for FRT15B3AW3, or search by model on Sears PartsDirect.
