more than likely the defroster inside the freezer has gone bad. This defroster is located in the space between the fridge and freezer and activates to defrost the freezer and stop build up of ice in the freezer.. If it is bad the freezer will not keep the fridge nor freezer cold.

Higher than normal temperature. Is your ice cream soft?

I believe that a short circuit creates a defective light bulb inside the refrigerator or some other element in its circuit (door switch, lamp socket, wiring). Dado

For such a procedure you should have knowledge and a lot of expensive work condition like: - Vacuum pump - Charging station - Manifolds - Recovery station - Electronic charging scale - Electronic leak detector or UV leak detector and so on ......

It is best to leave that to the specialist or qualified service personnel. Dado

Under normal operating conditions, the internal temperature of the freezer will ensure the longterm conservation of the stored food. When such temperature rises above a certain level (-12 °C), the appliance will trigger an acoustic and light alarm. The light alarm is a blink red light (Red Alarm Indicator Light), while the acoustic alarm is an intermittent sound. You can stop the acoustic alarm by pressing the Acoustic Signal Stop Switch once. When switching on the freezer for the first time, the Red Alarm Indicator Light will blink until the internal temperature has reached a level required for the safe conservation of frozen food. Dado

the unit was still wet inside when you switched on the fast freeze,hence the frost and ice.

Hello....Sounds to me like the fridge is getting low on refridgerant gas...If it is an older unit...it may have developed a leak over time and may just need a recharge.Get a quote from a repairman...most of the time..it is not very expensive to fix unless there is a problem with the compressor....I hope this was helpful....PEACE....
