It is a model 363.8587781 side by side. I had noticed that the lowest the fridge side could get was 45* and sometimes more like 54*. I pulled the freezer partition as I did see frost around top area. There is 3 main sets of evap coils, and the top coil had ice encasement while lower 2 sets of coils were frost free. I turned timer and got defrost heaters to go and they got hot. I got a hair dryer to remove ice from that top coil. Now it is cooling fast and ive noticed heat between doors. Ive also cleaned coils that werent very dusty. I did notice a brown out in power about 3 months ago... it was so bad that it scrambled my microwave display the same day. I think that may be when problem started, but I dont hear any bad compressor sounds. Is compressor maybe damaged from that brown out day? Low on freon? Is it worth putting in freon and is there a schrader valve to tap? Also , what gas is in it? Thanks alot.
