The fan on the bottom next to the compressor is running, I hear the fan in
the freezer running.

I left it turned off last night with the doors open, now I'm going to turn
it back on to see if it was ice blockage...

I have a Magic Chef fridge w/freezer on top.

Within the last week the fridge stopped cooling, but the freezer works
fine.

I looked for frost, but didn't see any anywhere.

Do you know what could be going on here?



Make sure the fan inside is running else it cannot recirculate the cold

air
from the freezer to the fridge. Sometimes they get jammed or the air
passage is blocked by contents or the motor just quits. This fan is

usually
located behind a panel in the back of the freezer or fridge. It's

usually
the noisiest part of the appliance, is is quieter today?

Since the freezer works, the compressor and all that stuff is good.
