Quick check — and when it's not DIY
Before you call anyone, confirm the thermostat setting, that the door seals fully, and that vents inside aren't blocked by over-packed items. If it's still acting up after that, it's usually a defrost heater, sensor, or sealed-system fault, and diagnosing those needs a multimeter and refrigeration training, not guesswork.
