Check whether the defrost hole is not iced up. If the hole is iced up it cannot automatically get rid of the additional water and cannot cool. Melt the ice using a glass of boiling water or steam until the hole is open.

there is a temp, sensor in side the fridge that turn on a heater rod and stops compressor that melts the ice at back of freezer and fan.
or toy can open rear panel in side freezer and pure hot water (not boiling ) on frozen ice on condenser coils, this will help you for on week and then you have to repeat it again
you need a good tech person to solve that problem

Check out this tip that I wrote about that... it is a great place to starttrouble shooting your unit...and something that you can do rather then callinga repair person to do a simple thing for you...
The defrost cycle is either failing to start (problem with defrost timer) or is not heating the defrost coil (most often defective defrost thermostat.)
When you defrosted did you remove the panel at the back of the freezer to defrost the drain hole for the defrosted water to drain out?
Generaly the control board controls everything sometimes you have a bad thermister GE has a help line I beleive it costs 20.00 bucks but you will need a meter and know how to use it and they willl talk you thru the repair .
Check to see if you have frost on the back panel of your freezer in your fridge. If you do your coil is frozen over and you'll have to defrost your freezer. I just did mine cause mine wasn't cooling properly on my fridge side. My coil was solid ice.
It sounds like the defrost heater is burned out. Remove the inside back cover in the freezer to see if the coils are frozen up. If so, more than likely your defrost heater has bit the dust. It is located at the bottom of the inside coil of the freezer.
Also, you could be have a clogged condensor coil. It is located on the out side back of the Fridge. You need to remove the panel from the lower part of the fridge and do a thorugh cleaning.
