Can I look up Frigidaire parts by model number?
Yes. Looking up parts by model number is the most accurate way to get compatible replacement parts for your Frigidaire GRSS2652AF2 side-by-side refrigerator because it filters results to the exact version of your appliance and its correct part list.
How to find the model number on your refrigerator
For GRSS2652AF2, use the complete model number exactly as shown on the appliance ID tag (letters and numbers matter).
Common places to check:
- Inside the fresh food compartment on a side wall
- Along the door opening near the hinges
- Behind the crisper drawers or on the ceiling of the compartment
- On the back exterior panel (less common, but possible)
How we recommend searching once you have the model number
Use the model number first, then narrow by the system you are repairing (ice maker, water system, door seal, cooling).
Best practice steps:
- Enter GRSS2652AF2 exactly (no spaces)
- Choose the symptom or section (ice and water, cooling, doors)
- Match the part name to what you see in the refrigerator
- Confirm the part ID before ordering
- Replace one part at a time when troubleshooting
Examples of model-matched parts you can shop by ID
These are common replacements for this model; matching by model number helps avoid look-alike parts.
| Repair need | Example part name | Part ID |
|---|---|---|
| No ice or poor ice production | Ice maker assembly | 243297613 |

Why it matters
Model-number lookup prevents ordering the wrong Frigidaire refrigerator parts, reduces returns, and speeds up repairs, especially for ice maker, water filter, evaporator fan, and door gasket issues.
If you are troubleshooting symptoms (not just replacing a known broken part), use Frigidaire refrigerator error codes to narrow the failure to the right system before you buy parts.

Can you buy replacement parts for a Frigidaire refrigerator?
Yes. You can buy replacement parts for a Frigidaire refrigerator, including model GRSS2652AF2, by matching the part to your exact model number and the failed component (water filtration, ice maker, door seal, controls, or cooling parts). Using the correct model match helps ensure proper fit and performance.
How to find the right part for GRSS2652AF2
Use these quick checks before ordering:
- Confirm the model number on the rating label is GRSS2652AF2 (not a similar series number).
- Identify the symptom (no ice, warm fridge, leaking water, door not sealing, bad taste/odor).
- Match the part name and ID to the component you are replacing.
- Replace maintenance items on schedule (water filter, air filter) to prevent repeat issues.
- If the refrigerator is not cooling, diagnose first; do not start with the most expensive part.
Common replacement parts customers buy for this model
Here are examples of parts available for Frigidaire GRSS2652AF2:
| Problem you are solving | Part to consider | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| No ice or poor ice production | Frigidaire refrigerator ice maker assembly 243297613 | Cycles and harvests ice into the bin |
| Slow water flow or bad taste | Frigidaire refrigerator water filter FPPWFU01 | Filters drinking water and ice maker supply |
| Door not sealing, frost, sweating | Refrigerator freezer door gasket (gray) 241786014 | Seals the freezer door to prevent air leaks |
| Warm temps, weak airflow | Frigidaire refrigerator evaporator fan motor 809069206 | Circulates cold air through compartments |
Why it matters
Ordering by brand alone (Frigidaire) is not enough. Side-by-side refrigerators often use different door gaskets, sensors, and ice maker designs across model revisions; matching GRSS2652AF2 prevents returns and repeat failures.

What's the average lifespan of a Frigidaire refrigerator?
Most Frigidaire refrigerators average 10 to 15 years of service life. For a Frigidaire side-by-side like GRSS2652AF2, steady temperatures, clean airflow, and routine filter changes are what most often push lifespan toward the high end.
Typical lifespan and what affects it
A refrigerator’s life is usually determined by compressor run time, heat removal, and how well the doors seal.
- 10 to 15 years is the typical range for modern refrigerators
- Heavy use (large households, frequent door openings) shortens life
- Poor airflow around the cabinet and dirty condenser areas increase wear
- Weak door gaskets cause longer run times and moisture issues
- Water and ice system upkeep helps prevent leaks and ice maker strain
Maintenance that extends life (high impact)
These steps reduce run time and prevent common failures in side-by-side refrigerators.
- Keep the refrigerator and freezer not overpacked so vents can circulate air
- Set stable temps (common targets: 37°F fresh food, 0°F freezer)
- Replace the water filter on schedule using the correct cartridge, such as Frigidaire refrigerator water filter FPPWFU01
- If odors build up, replace the air filter (when equipped), such as refrigerator pureair ultra ii air filter PAULTRA2
- If doors do not close firmly, inspect and clean the gasket sealing surfaces; replace if torn or warped
Quick comparison: what usually fails first
| Component area | Common symptom | Typical fix |
|---|---|---|
| Door sealing | Frost, sweating, warm temps | Clean/adjust doors; replace gasket if needed |
| Airflow (fans/vents) | Warm fridge, noisy fan | Clear vents; diagnose fan motor/blade |
| Water/ice system | Slow water, small cubes, leaks | Replace filter; check inlet valve and lines |
| Temperature sensing | Temps swing, odd cycling | Test/replace sensor (thermistor) |
Why it matters
When a refrigerator runs longer to maintain temperature (from restricted airflow, a clogged filter, or a leaking door seal), the compressor and electronics cycle harder. That extra heat and run time is what most often shortens overall lifespan.

What is the most common problem with a Frigidaire refrigerator?
For the Frigidaire GRSS2652AF2 side-by-side refrigerator, the most common issue we see is a cooling problem (fresh food section too warm, freezer still cold), usually tied to airflow, defrost, or temperature-sensing problems. Ice maker and water dispenser issues are also frequent on side-by-side models.
Most common symptoms to watch for
- Refrigerator section warm but freezer normal
- Frost or ice buildup on the freezer back wall
- Weak airflow from the refrigerator vents
- Ice maker not making ice or dispensing inconsistently
- Temperature swings (food freezing in the fridge or spoiling early)
Quick checks we recommend first
- Confirm settings: Set the refrigerator to about 37°F and the freezer to about 0°F.
- Listen for the evaporator fan: When the freezer door switch is held closed, you should typically hear the fan running.
- Check for frost buildup: Heavy frost on the freezer rear panel often points to a defrost problem.
- Clean condenser area: Dust buildup reduces cooling efficiency and can cause warm temperatures.
- Rule out water supply issues (for ice and water): Verify the shutoff valve is fully open and the supply line is not kinked.
Parts that commonly solve these problems on GRSS2652AF2
| Problem area | What it affects | Example part for this model |
|---|---|---|
| Airflow in freezer | Moves cold air to both sections | Frigidaire refrigerator evaporator fan motor 809069206 |
| Temperature sensing | Tells the control when to cool/defrost | Refrigerator temperature sensor 5303918775 |
| Defrost system | Prevents ice from blocking airflow | Refrigerator defrost heater 5304526032 |
| Ice production | Makes ice in the freezer | Frigidaire refrigerator ice maker assembly 243297613 |
Why it matters
A side-by-side can keep the freezer cold while the refrigerator warms up because the refrigerator section depends on airflow from the freezer. When frost blocks the evaporator or the evaporator fan slows down, cold air cannot circulate properly, so food temperatures rise even though the compressor is still running.
Helpful DIY guidance
- Use how to fix your evaporator cooling fan to understand common fan failure symptoms and safe troubleshooting steps.
- If you are seeing an error on the display, Frigidaire refrigerator error codes helps narrow the problem to a sensor, fan, defrost, or control issue.
