Fridge was not going below 60 degrees in lower fresh food area
Took the back panel off the inside of the freezer by removing 4 screws, removed and replaced the defrosting coil/tube, power wiring was snap on and off, no need to be an electricion. Used a heat gun, on low, to remove the ice from the freezer coils. Put the panel back and in a matter of a few hours, the lower fresh food compartment was around 40 degrees. Problem fixed and only cost was for the part.
