I have a 6 yr old Kenmore refrigerator that has decided to stop cooling. The freezer stays cold, but not cold enough to keep ice cream hard. The refrigerator does not stay cool hardly at all. I've unplugged it and let it sit to defrost. There is a build up of frost on the back panel of the freezer. I've cleaned everything on the back of the refrigerator. I recently took the back panel out of the freezer and found everything iced over. I defrosted all of that and let it sit overnight and it seemed to start working again, but now it is starting to frost up again. What could be the problem and how can I fix it? To those who reply: Layman's terms please.
