Refrigerator not cold enough at highest setting. Temperature stays around 52 degrees F.
SOURCE: My freezer remains cold at the proper temperature
That is way too warm for a refrigerator, those temps are unafe to keep food - it should be no warmer than 40F, and optimally 34F. For your freezer no warmer than 10F, optimal is 0F and colder.
If your freezer is within those temps, then your evap fan is working normally - you might want to have your damper checked - it is a flap that opens and closes as needed to circulate cold air to your refrigerator - if this damper is stuck and woN't open or open wide enough your refrigerator won't get the needed cooling.
You might want to check for leaky gaskets in your door.

Normally your fridge is set +2 degrees C. with a differential of 3 so when it reaches +5 it should switch back on. if this is not doing this then a new thermostat may be in order.
SOURCE: The door on the refrigerator
Check the hinges for any bends, loosening or other damage. Also check the gasket (door seal) along it's entire length for any spots that may have torn or came loose from the door. Closing the refrigerator door creates a vacuum that helps keep the door closed; thus if it cannot seal it may open. Also check the entire surface of where the door gasket will contact the refrigerator chassis for anything that would disrupt the seal...it should be clean.
