Default GE side by side not cooling or freezing
Brand: General Electric
Model Number: TFX20JRSM
Age: More than 10 years

Hi,
This fridge was working fine till about a week ago.My wife cleaned it out,and it is probably just a coincidence but it hasn't worked right since.
We first noticed things weren't as cold in the fridge.Thought she must have bumped a thermostat or setting ,but we've checked them all and turned them to coldest with no help.
Now I've noticed things in the freezer are thawing and the ice maker isn't making ice any more. It seems to be getting worse as it goes.
I don't see any frost or ice build up on inside.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks a lot,Frankie

Below the evaporator fan in the freezer is the evaporator coils. Remove the back cover in the freezer to observe the frost pattern. stopped up? clear? ice in one spot . frost everywhere.

If iced over check defrost timer, defrost heater, defrost thermostat
