I just had the same thing happen to my 12 year old refrigerator about 8
months ago. I took it out doors and using a air compressor, I blow all the
dust/dirt off the coils under the refrigerator. Working excellent ever
sence. Have a look at the coils first to check an see if they are dirty,
If they are make sure you take it out doors or enclose the fridge with
plastic before you clean it, I was completely cover in dust after I blow
mine out.

My refrigerator is running..........however, everything in the freezer
has defrosted, and the refrigerator part stuff is just
semi-cold.......I turned the controls all the way to the coldest. I do
not understand what could have caused this, and what should I do? Is
it on its way out? It's a Whirlpool, and it does appear to be quite
old. It was here when I bought the house 3 yrs ago, I have no idea how
old it is.
thanks in advance for any advice!
