Fridge has ice up the back, but doesn't seem to be cold !

I had the same problem a few years ago. A handyman (there to adjust my
furnace) gave me the same advice Buffalo Bill gives here. He took off a
plate on the back of the fridge and I was appalled and embarrassed at
the amount of dog hair and dust that was clinging to the coils. He said
that lots of folks fail to keep the coils clean and end up with a warm
fridge, and that people need to be diligent about vacuuming the back of
the fridge. We vacuumed the coils and voila! my fridge began functioning
properly again.
So it's worth checking the coils for dust and hair. Good luck!
