Normally what causes the refrigerator not to be cold enough is that the fan that pulls the air from the freezer is not working. Check to make sure it is working, if not then you will have to replace it.
No the freezer and refrigerator settings DO NOT have to be the same

Lower the settings to 1 or 2. If you have veggie bins with the sliding adjusting air vent (door thingy) check them and make sure the settings are cold and not colder. it brings more air to the bottom. Cold air drop to the bottom because it is heavier than warm air.

check that the evaporator fan motor ,located in freezer is working.it circulates the cold air.also check that the coils behind freezer back panel are not iced up,this would indicate a lack of defroting due to,timer,heating element,or bi-metal.lastly when the refrig is running those coils should get frost over them all,if not you may be low on refigerant

sounds like it is a fan issue - there is a fan the blows the cold air from the freezer section in to the refrig section, stick ur head in the refrig section and see if you hear a fan running - you probably wont - you will actually probably start to notice that the freezer section is getting really really cold, like to the point of a deep freeze... the good news is that as long as the freezer section is cold your compressor is still working, so this will not be all that spendy to fix...

It sounds like the interior fan has stopped. It should be located behind freezer back panel. Pull out the screws and have a look. Hope this helps. Good luck.

have your compressor checked

Is the fan working?

no , actually a bad defrost thermostat would not allow the unit to defrost, too much ice would build and you would be losing refrigeration/ freezer capabilities. a faulty cold control would cause refig to contstantly runf( never cycle off and sened verything intoa deep freeze, regardless of setting, so i'd look towards control fro your problem description

holding tank is in refig compartment so water is going to be as cold as refrig 38-40
