What could be the problem(s) anyone?

Answer:
The problem is your fan for cooling the refrigerator is frozen. Your timer for defrosting may be bad or the defrost heater may be bad. Check the back of the freezer. If it is covered with ice you will need to unplug your refrigerator and let it thaw out. You can use a hair dryer to help thaw the frozen. Is your freezer on the bottom and by the way what make of refrigerator is it? We have an Amana with the freezer on the bottom that gives us fits with this problem. We have replaced the timer but it didn't cure the problem. Turning it off to defrost is the only fix that I have found.

There is a web sight Repairclinic.com that can help you!
