Correct, condenser coils remove heat from the freezer compartment, thusly they will be hot. Sounds like the compressor is failing and that is probably giving off a squealing sound and stops running until it stops. Then your compressor will overheat and stop running until the thermal protector cools down and allows it to run again. Try replacing the compressor cooling fan.
is the condenser fan running back there?also did you clean out the condenser coil?usually when the middle strip gets hot the coil is filled with dust or the fan where the compressor is isn't running.the condenser fan keeps the compressor cool and all the heat from the machine escapes out through the condenser coil.check this,also the start device could be bad on the compressor,send model number next time you write so whoever helps you can look up your machine.hope this info helps you out.
OK-to make this short-you either have a boiler tube blockage or Hydrogen
diffusion.If your cooling unit quit suddenly,you more than likely have a
boiler tube blockage due to precipitation of Sodium Chromate.If your
cooling unit gradually quit working it's Hydrogen diffusion.This process
is not easy to understand,and I won't bother you with the details as to
why.By the way,burping is a myth,it dosen't work.If there is a blockage
in your cooling unit turning your refrigerator upside down won't
dislodge it.Danby dosen't make stand alone Propane refrigerators
anymore,and since the cooling unit is foamed into the box,it's a throw
away refrigerator.You will have to get a Servel RGE 400 made by
Dometic.It's the same size as the Danby and I have those for a very good
price.Go to: www.marvinspropanerefrigerators.com
Many times a freezer and/or refrigeratordo not work right because of a dirty condenser coil...there are also many otherthings that can go wrong.
If you are hearing a clicking or buzzing thencheck out the last two tips.
If your refrigerator is running but warm, then...
Check out these tips that I wrote about that... it is a great place to starttrouble shooting your unit...and something that you can do rather then callinga repair person to do a simple thing for you...

sounds like you need to replace the ptc overload on the compressor as this component supplies start and run power to the compressor and its getting weak and short cycling the compressor,they just unplug and plug into the side of the compressor and when you remove it shake it by hand and if you hear it rattle thats a good sign its bad
If both compartments are warm, this means that the compressor is either not running or is running and not circulating the refrigerant. We need to know if the compressor is running. Its the black can looking thing behind the refrigerator at the bottom with copper tubes going to it. If it feels cool to the touch it is not running. If it is warm or hot, it is running and not pumping. If its not running it may be a problem with the thermostat, the defrost timer or the compressor itself. If it is running and hot but the fridge isn't cooling, it may have a leak or a bad compressor or relay.
Hi , The cooling fan inside are full of ice need to defrost , rotates the timer set the heating element become hot for defrost the ice inside the compartment of cooling system.let refrigerator defrost about 1 hour so that all may drain down to waste container.
