Most likely that the thermostat is defective or the main controller board is defective. Try powering off at the mains and leaving it off for 30 mins and then turning back on the power - it sometimes works. If not then call in a repair man asap.
How to check
everything http://www.acmehowto.com/howto/appliance/refrigerator/refrigerator.php
If the evaporator coils behind the back panel of the freezer are icing up because of auto defrost failure that will stop the circulation of cold air and eventually affect the freezer too.
check defrost timer, defrost heater, defrost thermostat. In
most newer models the timer has been replaced by an electronic control board.
If the heater and thermostat are ok it’ll be the control.
You can turn the defrost timer till it clicks
and everything shuts down. The heater should now come on. If it does, replace
the timer. If it doesn't, check the heater and defrost thermostat. Turn the
timer again till everything starts back up to end the defrost cycle.

My freezer is currently at 0 degrees and the refrigerator at 35. However, every- so-often the motor stops and the freezer rises to 40+, ice melts, etc. Not the normal defrost. After a while it kicks on back on. I've had the condensor and the defrost heater replaced to the tune of over $500. The repairman can't think of anything else. Any ideas?
