Is the evaporator fan in the freezer running. It blows cold air into the fridge side through a damper in the wall between the freezer and fridge. Make sure the damper is open.

When you let it sit overnight it may be letting the ice buildup on the evaporator coils melt. If so then you need to check your defrost system. Defrost timer, defrost heater and defrost thermostat. Refrigerator Repair Guide: How To Fix a Refrigerator - ACME HOW TO.com
