GRSS2652AF8 Frigidaire Refrigerator - Instructions

I checked the dampener, it worked. The compressor and fan worked. I knew because my freezer was still hovering around 10 degrees. Coils were clean. Thermistor was the only thing it could be. Took all my shelves out. Removed four screws. Took the back panel off. The thermistor sits tucked in on the side. I piped it out, in clipped it. Used my multimeter to test the numbers. Numbers were off just a bit. Ordered the part. Crossed my fingers.,took less then 5 minutes to put the part in. Plugged in the fridge. It was sitting at 33 degrees in about an hour and a half. I can’t believe I fixed it. I knew NOTHING about refrigerators. For how big my fridge is, it would have cost 3,000 and up to get a new one with the same cu ft size. Instead, it cost me $44. That includes shipping. Thank you Parts Select!! Made it so easy to pick the correct part for my model fridge!

Pushed the old filter in and it came out then I pushed in the new one.

Took drawers out by removing 2 screws on top of rail near front, then popped black plastic cover off in lower right inside cabinet...sensor just un plugged and new one plugged in easily...did not fix problem though...display set at 34 but bottom drawer reads about 40 at best and upper drawer reads around 55...dont think the 3 little fans inside on back wall have been running

We replaced the damper, but it didn't fix the problem. We then purchased and replaced the thermistor. (We had previously replaced the defrost thermostat). The refrigerator side is now cooling better, but not enough. The damper doesn't seem to be opening. So we have now unplugged the damper and left the opening between the refrigerator propped open and the refrigerator side is now cool enough. (We had previously tried keeping the damper open before we replaced the thermistor and the refrigerator didn't cool off. So the thermistor did fix something, but the damper doesn't seem to have been the problem).

Followed instructions for this part from this site and things went well.

The most difficult task for me was getting old gasket out. I did call for repair help. The service person was most helpful. After almost giving up, one more tug and the gasket started coming out. Next step was cleaning the area. Aligning the gasket correctly made installation easier. I realized right away that I needed to start in a corner. The gasket went in without a hitch. My freezer is like new again. Next installment will be the refrigerator.

Every time I spoke to someone they sent wrong part . Still do not have correct part. Plus had to pay to return part. I sent model number , bin number and they can’t seem to match. Afraid to try again.

Followed the simple instructions on the device and in the appliance use and care manual

there is no visible way to remove the old one i have spent hours on line and on the phone with tech support with no results . and have a complete parts diagram.this unit is less than one and a half years old manufactured 9/21 i will never buy frigidaire again

The repair itself total time was quick and easy. Since the original fan blade blew apart, it was only a matter of putting the new one on in it's place. This can be done by feeding the blade between the cowling and Condenser coil and applying pressure to get it on the shaft.

If your fan is still on the shaft, simply push it off and extract it the same way. Then place the new one on the shaft.

In my case, since the part would take a couple days to get, and I had food both in the fridge and the freezer, I removed and unplugged the Condenser Fan Motor and the cowling frame and temporarily spliced a small fan I had into the line for the condenser motor. This kept the fridge working long enough to get the replacement part.

Side note. Direction of airflow is towards the Compressor, and draws air across the Condenser coils.

Hope this helps someone. :)

Remove the drawer, and everything you have on the top glass of the rail. Push the rail upward and pull towards you. Remove the two clips from old part and place them on new part. Place the new part using the same steps. Remember to hold the two clips in place.

The part i recieved, from parts select was a larger in circumfrence (<1/4) than the original. However i was not aware of this until after i treid to repair it.

I removed the broken fan from the condenser. This was very sipmle.

When i pluged the refridgerator back in to the outlet the fan tried to start up but soon began to make aloud noise, due to there not being enough clerance.

This barely qualifies as an installation. I simply lifted and pulled the old Deli cover out and placed the new one in place and snapped it down! I didn't need to use even ONE screw!
The easiest replacement ever!

Consulted You Tube. Took off old gasket. Easy. Put on new one after getting it warm. The track on the new gasket did not sit properly. Took multiple attempts but finally worked. Size was perfect but the gasket color was different than original and therefore, different from the refrigerator door. No tools required.

Pulled door seal put and pushed in new seal, icing formed on fridge side lower return vents, had to fully chip away, compressor running and stopping as normal.
