Typically, the fridge gets its cool air via a vent from the freezer. If this vent becomes blocked, then the fridge won't cool. If there is nothing obvious blocking the vent (like a plastic bag) on either side then it is possible the vent is clogged with ice. To fix this, move your food to a cooler and unplug the fridge long enough for the ice to melt (12-24 hours).

Low refrigerant assuming the compressor is always running and not being shut down by the thermostat.

You can hook up an ammeter to the unit to see if the current consumption is below spec, another sign of low gas situation since the motor is not working as hard as under normal conditions.

This is a drawback of most mini-fridges. Start by defrosting everything. Then fill ice cube trays with water and keep lowering the setting until the water freezes. Just go a little lower, no more. Fridge should not freeze food. If the fridge stays closed all the time food will freeze. Also if the freezer element gets ice buildup it must be defrosted. Not automatic like home fridge. Most kids today weren't born when the last fridges that had to be defrosted were in service.

If, the fresh food section is 34- 38 degrees, then the freezer should be cold enough to keep ice cream solid. All of the cooling capability comes from the freezer section. I, personally, would not waste time or money on a ten year old box. Ten years ago it cost $1000, so, the outlay is $100 per year. Dump the old refrigerator and get a new one.

Switch off the refrigerator. Let all ice melt completely. it may take 4 hours. Switch it ON again. does it work better for 2-3 days. if yes,change bimetal and timer.

Make sure the compressor fan is not rubbing against anything and there is proper air flow to cool the compressor. Remove all dust. Also make sure you don't keep too much food in the freezer to inhibit the circulation of cold air.

Check the compressor with a volt meter, if the compressor is getting proper voltage then check the relay. But this sounds like a problem with the compressor

remove the back panel inside the freezer and check for ice build up on the evaporator pipework. if ice build up, this prevents air flow and hence temp rises.
remove ice carefully with a hair dryer and it should work. if problem comes back, you have a problem with the defrost system and get back to me if you want
