My tenant's Kenmore 253.64802400 freezer is working but the fridge area is not staying cool.
Remove the bottom plastic liner on the freezer and look midways ont the backside for the hole where the drain is. If it has a slabe of ice over it unplug the freezer and let it thaw out. This will take a day or 2 to fix so have the food transfered elsewhere. After thaw out clear the drain. Remove the rear panel and check the fan operation. At that point if the fan is operating you can put the panels back on and wsee if clearing the drain is the problem. If it happens again in a few weeks then either the heater is bad or the defrost thermostat is bad. When either one of these go out the timer still goes into defrost but the heat does not. So what water dribbles down in them 21 minutes tends to pool up and freeze over. The evaporator gets clogged . The refrigerator has a blizzard up in the freezer and nothing happening below even though the fan is blowing full blast shaboom!

The freezer control on most units is just a door that you open or close to let more or less air into refirig from freezer. The higher the setting, the less air to the frig side.
If frost build-up on freezer side, then you have a defrost problem. Too much frost build-up on evaporator is blocking air flow to refrig.

If the fan is not working, you need to check to see if the fan is getting an electric feed to it, if not, then prob is elsewhere.
If it is, then fan is probably faulty, and would need replacing.
Please rate my comments.
Thanks.

It is possible that your refrigerator is not defrosting. If the evaporator at the back of the fridge is ices over the fridge cannot circulate air, and will get warmer. It could also be the evaporator fan, but more likely the defrost. You may have to take off the back panel to get to the evaporator coil. If it is frozen over melt the ice, set the controls to center, and replace the defrost heater and defrost thermostat.
