On this type ice box the cold air for the freshfood section comes from the freezer via a fan motor. For all of it to work propah the freezer must not be crammed full. The air has to circulate or the fresh food section will suffer. So if you have it overloaded where the air cannot get below then Houston we indeed have a problem. If that is fine we want to next check to see if the fan is blowing up in the freezer section. No fan no cold air below. If that is fine we want to make sure the evap coils ain't froze ova by a faulty defrost heater or termination thermostat. If the defrost is all propah AND the fan is fine AND the coils behind the ice box are clean for optimum performance, then look for a clogged defrost drain. Sometimes the drain cloggs and the water pools between freezer and fresh food section. A slab of ice forms effectively blocking any cold air from gettin to the bottom. To cure that yall unplug it and let it all thaw out then clean the defrost drain. If ice is blocking the defrost drain then run a wire down into it from the heater to keep the drain open and party on!

Kenmore 795 freezer on top. Freezer working, temp lights on in fridge, but fridge not cooling and lamp out as well.

If the freezer is located above the fridge, the air from the freezer drops into the fridge to create the cooling in the fridge. So what I would look for is a blocked vent from the freezer to the fridge, which is usually located on the top and or back of the fridge inside of cores. You can get a frost or ice build up in there and block the air flow to the fridge, that is usuall the problem. I would also heck the dial for temp control in the fridge, I know my kids have changed it before on me.

Its defrost problem, the freezer should cool, then freeze, then defrost cycle should start. In your case freezer is cooling, then freezing, but its not defrosting. That's why fridge section is not cooling.-------

Fridge is not cooling

Check compressor is working. If working check freezer is working. If freezer is working with full of ice, check for auto defrost. If not, manually defrost it. In maximum units the main problem is fridge not cooling but freezer working alright. As over ice formed and covered up fan side (Behind Freezer), there won't be cooling in fridge compartment. Thanks.
