My freezer is not getting cold anymore.

Is it more than 10 years old?

Either, the defrost timmer has had it, or the freezer defrost element has failed, the element is the most common cause of this type of problem. You have ice build-up in the freezer cores because it cant defrost, all frostfree units rely on cold air from the freezer to blow into the fridge, if the freezer cores become blocked, air can not pass to the fridge side. I bet you, if you left the unit off for 2 days to defrost totally,,,,with the doors open...then plugged it back in, it would work like new for 2 weeks.
Timmer or defrost element needs to be replaced...do not fall for the trick that the fridge mech. has to take it away, you tell him that this is the problem and you will save yourself ALOT of cash.

Dont forget to vote for the solution...regards Russ

with the unit being that old , the compressor probably whent out the oils inside probably froze up ,,,,, to replace a compressor you are better off replacing the unit it is a major repair

it's scrap
they use steel lines inside the cabinet and when you unplugged it the lines rusted through

Yes that is the correct part number.
If a new cold control does not correct the problem. Replace the compressor start relay.

s it should the ambient temperatures that you said are way to cold to expect the freezer to operate properly. move it indoors and or contact the manufacture and see if the have a kit to put on the unit to work properly.

try to vacum the coils on back, if thats the problem u will feel them get a little warm if this doesnt work try to tap the relay next to your compressor, i had this same problem

The compressor is overheating and not starting. Could be just the start relay. If this happens again try unplugging it for about an hour then it should work for a while. Heat between doors is normal this is an electric heater designed to keep the doors from sweating. You just noticed it because the refrigerator wasn't cold.

Check that the air vent is free from anything blocking it at it maybe over heating.
