What part do I need to fix it? Model 106 53602201
The fresh food side is cooled by the freezer side through a duct between the two. It will have a small door that opens or closes depending on how cool you want the fresh food side. The door opens more as you adjust the temp for the fresh food side colder. If the duct is blocked in any way, then it would be like setting the temp setting for the fresh food side warmer and warmer. The freezer would be cold and the fresh food side would be warm. Set the temp to midway. Check for any obstructions to this duct. The evaporator fan is what moves the air to the fresh food side.. If the evaporator fan is not working, this could vary well is the problem. You may have to check the evaporator coil to see if it is frosted up enough to restrict air flow over the evaporator and to the fresh food side. If this helps you find your problem, please rate me. If there is anything else I can help you with, please ask. I am here to help you.
I am not sure what you found but what ever it was, there is probably an underlieing problem. If you would let me know what you found. I would be happy to help in finding the original problem that caused your fresh food compartment to be too warm. Too much frost on the evaporator, ice build up on the evaporator, the air circulation stoped by some type of blockage. The defrost system failure. There has to be something that caused this. I would be happy to help.

Thank you very much. My found the problem before I read your solution but you are right on. Thanks again.
When the panel is opened I saw too much frost on the evaporator and ice built up on the evaporator, the air duct was only partially connected to the fresh food compartment. The defrost system was the problem before due to the drain line was block by the ice and water found on the floor twice a day. I turned off the unit and connected the air duct properly. It is all working now but I still worry that the defrost system problem may come back.
