it is behind the plastic panel at the back of the freezer,usually just clips in and pulls out

thermostats are cheap buy a new one and fit it

the higher the number you set it to the colder it gets if the freezer will not cool on high then you have a compressor or gas problem neither is worth repairing

the lamp knob may be sticking try it by hand id so the unit in which it is in has bee assembled incorrectly

first indication is a faulty thermostat
