Okay, here goes. Both fans are running, compressor getting warm, but not kicking over. I do hear a clicking noise, like the compressor is trying to kick in, but never does. It will do this every 5-10 min. It clicks twice. I have tried unplugging it for hours, thinking maybe it would reset. I was out of town Saturday night and came back to a warm frige. It was stormy that night, so I don't know if the power was surging. Please tell me this is a small part that can be replaced and not the compressor. I have a Roper RT21LMXKQ00. It was made 1-02. So it not that old, just old enough that the warranty just expired. GO figure. I did clean the coils about a week before this happen.
Pull the thermostat out and short the two wires together and see if the fridge cools,

freezer is working, frige is not cooling.....checked fan and it runs, what next?
I am having the same problem, but I let the compressor cool off and plugged it back in, with a thermomoter I watched as the temp went down.... it got down to 2.5 degrees, I thought it had reset itself from being unplugged, but when I got up the next morning it was 50 degrees in the freezer?? is this a small problem. I have checked the cost of a compressor $$$$$
