I have a Kenmore Coldspot 106.58902801. After a recent power outage, and a brief period on a generator, both compressor and evaporator fans stopped functioning. Compressor still hums and is warm/hot to touch, coils inside freezer still get cold and build up frost. No working fans though. Any Ideas?

You have a sealed system problem. There is either a small leak or a restriction somewhere in the tubing. This isn't something you could've caused so don't worry about that. Unfortunately this isn't something you can fix yourself either. You require a certified refrigeration technician to fix this problem.
SOURCE: Warm refrig and freezer
You probably need some refrigerant added. There probably is a leak in the system that caused the lack of refrigerant. Get the leak fixed and add refrigerant before you blow your compressor too. Or get a new fridge.
SOURCE: ice build up on coil inside freezer
it can be two things the refrgerator probably has a small refrigerant leak therefore it ices up, or the defrosting heater on the begining of the coil is faulty.
SOURCE: Compressor & Evap. Fan both work for 12 hours then evap stops
I believe that because defrost is done by the mother control board this is why this is happening the part of the board that controls defrost is malfunctioning and the only way to resolve the problem is to replace the mother board part number WR55X10656 You can find the replacement board at these places below.

Testimonial: "You were right, thanks for your help. The control board was bad. That is what I suspected, but I wanted a second opinion."
SOURCE: Freezer is not cold and evaporator fan (inside
ok well... those pipes coming from your compressor one of them should be hot. if not your compressor is not running.
