The freezer froze up then when it thawed and was turned back on, it won't freeze anything. It stays cool, but not enough to keep anything frozen.
When you thawed it, did you remove ice from it using a metal object. That may have damaged the coils when would allow freon to leak out. This is too coincidental to be a problem itself with the compressor. The t'stat might be the problem. Try turning it off at the t'stat for a few minutes, then turn back on to the normal setting. Keep door closed for 30 minutes and check the inside and see if the walls are freezing. If not, you may have a compressor problem, or t'stat, or relay switch problem.

Freezer froze up solid, unplugged it and after thaw, when plugged back in it will cool but not freeze. The seals appear to be fine. Could it be a thermostat issue?
