The start relay of the refrigerator is located at the compressor covered with black plastic terminal cover. The cover can be removed by pressing the metal clamp by finger and inserting a small screw driver at the end of the clamp. Some do not use metal clamp and use only plastic cover. It can be remove by using a small flat screw driver. Insert the screw driver in the plastic cover and pull the cover by hand. The relay is the one attached to the terminal of the compressor and have two to three holes.
Anytime there is ice buildup it will not cool. Was the door left open? If so that would cause ice buildup. If it wasn't left open and it is a frost free model you have a problem with the defrost circuit. Unplug it and Manually defrost it with items removed by using a hairdryer and towels to absorb water from defrosting Afterwards it will cool again .If the defrost circuit needs service the unit will continue to frost up. Usually in frost free models there is a heater that goes bad.
Take the ice out look at the flap from the inside...hopefully an easy fix may have to order a new flap moisture gets in there again to vfreeze after you use the blow dryer
First thing to check is the condenser here is a diagram to show you the condenser, it is #75 on the diagram you want to make sure the coils are free and clear of any dust and dirt that would stop good air flow, this would be one reason the unit would run continuously. Let me know if it is clean.
Seems to me that might be a clogged defrost drain or maybe a dripping water valve. Doing that. I have the service manual with nice pictures in it that show clearly how to access the components.
