Any tips much appreciated.

Check the condenser fan. You probably already know where it is; most likely
you removed a wad of dust from it when you were cleaning the coils. It pulls
cool air in over the coils and then blows hot air out over the pan where the
defrosted water drips. If the fan stops working, the refrigerator will
still stay kind of cool, but it will have to work very hard and things won't
be as cold as they should be.

That was my problem. First it was a dead mouse. Three months later I
thought I had mice again, but it was a piece of insulation from the
fridge, stuck in the fan.
