    We took the back panel out of the freezer and there it was! ICE We defrosted the freezer and found the defrost heater had actually burned out. After replacing those small units (only about $40.00)

    we are up and running again! Thank you all for your help!!

    You may have a defrost problem

    Remove the back panel of the freezer section, or look inside the vent ports at top and bottom back of the freezer and see if you can see a buildup of frost or ice on the coil. If you can, then you probably have a defrost heater, sensor, or timer problem that needs to be corrected.

    The condition will slowly worsen until the freezer will not freeze any more.

Check evaporator fan to see if it is blowing air over to ref. side.you also could have a defrost problem.if you notice frost forming on the back panel inside freezer then it is a defrost problem.all parts are in freezer that need to be checked.

My frig and freezer seem to work but not cooling anything, all my ice in my ice maker melted. there is some cool air in there. all the seals around my frig and freezer look fine. its been not freezing...
Suggest you do a 12 hour defrost then re switch on. most of the time excess ice is the problem.

Frig doesn't cool. Freezer works fine. freezer
You have solved your problem :D You need to get that fan blowing. The vast majority of the time that is all you need. Other times, there can be another part controlling the operation of the fan (ADC - Adaptive Defrost Control). Post the model number and I will see if you have one of these ADCs in your appliance :D

Freezer to cold refrigerator not cold enough
sounds like your defrost timer is not working properly . Most fridge/freezers the fridge gets cooled from the cool air from the freezer . But when the defrost timer is not working properly the section between the fridge and freezer freezes up and hence doesnt allow the flow of cool air into the fridge. The defrost timer can be easily replaced.

Frig side is not cooling.
Check if there is frost on the back wall of the freezer, if so it is not defrosting. Many GE fridges need a new defrost heater every couple of years. If it's not defrosting, you can get by for a while by unplugging the fridge and leaving the freezer door open for 24 hrs, then plugging back in.

Frig won't cool, freezer works fine
Defrost unit completely. You're frosting up. Then, avoid leaving the door open, leaving liquids and food uncovered. Clean condenser coils. If it happens again, you need refrigerant.
