Nine times out of ten it comes down to evaporator fan not running. Left unaddressed, food or stock can spoil within hours.

Quick check — and when it's not DIY
Before booking a repair, listen for the evaporator fan running when the door's closed, since a silent fan is a common first sign. Should that not clear it, a fan that's confirmed dead, or ice built up around it, means removing interior panels to reach it — not a quick swap without disassembly experience.
