I assume this model is close to mine. Mine is gss25lgmabb. Compressor hot to the touch. Put kick start on and comp. ran lock roter amps. removed kick start and cmpressor ran, condensor fan was running as well as evaporater fan but i had no cooling at all in freezer or refrig. All coils are clean. Could the comp. be going off and on? Ther arnt any ports to check refrigerant level. The display for the temp. settings in the refrig. department are not on. I checked the capacitor it test good. does this model have the start assist on the side of the comp?
Are you sure that the compressor is running? If it is and you have no cooling it sounds like you have a leak in the system and there is no gas left. Most refrigerators have a 5 year warrenty on the sealed system. If you fall into the 5 years you may want to call GE. also there is a electronic control bord that comtrols the unit that could also be defective causing the compressor not to start. Good Luck hand hope this helped you some.

I did find a leak in the evap coil. I replaced coil charged the systemby weighing in the required 4.5 oz. of 134-a refrigerant. Still there is no cooling at all. What should be the equalized pressure be and the running pressure. Found no sign of a restiction, compressor is hot to the touch.
