Could be due to the fan and channel drawing cold air from freezer to main compartment. Check if there are ice inside that blocked the channel or stuck the fan. If no, it could be thermostat issue. If there are blockage and fan stuck, you need to off the fridge, take out the stuff and use a hair dryer to accelerate the melting. Do not pack the fridge with a lot of things, it will cause poor circulation and the pre mentioned problem.

don't repair first.

sometimes it is due to blockage by ice.

what to do?

turn off the fridge, remove everything from the fridge, leave the doors opened for more than 6 hours.

turn on after that. might work again .

I have a feeling this may work, but let me check with you further..

How come blocked by ice?

The fridge has two temp controls. One is in the Freezer Compartment
The other is in the Main compartment

Does this mean the fridge has 2 thermastats? Or one?

It shouldn't hurt to learn the word 'chiller'.

Usually the top compartment is the freezer while the one below is the chiller. You don't need to prove anymore that you a retard by 
calling that the 'main compartment"   Rolleyes

It's a helluva waste of timer editing your post when you frequently become a little NERVOUS when writing to me which resulted in all kinds of errors, usually the retarded kind. 

So I shall not do any editing and only make the font a little, just a little, bigger.  Rolleyes

Kaykiang again. A fridge is usually made up of the freezer and the refrigeration compartments. A chiller is a cooling machine.

Your condenser coil/fan coil is probably very dirty

Switch off the fridge power
Push out your fridge. 
Use paint brush to clean away the dust from the condenser coil/fan coil.

Once your condenser coil is covered with thick layer of dust. The heat exchange to remove heat from the fridge become less efficient.
This also same apply to your aircon if it is not cold. Just need to clean the condenser coil using paint brush or use water hose to spray water into it normally installed outside the aircon ledge.

If spray water, need to do it during rainy day and switch off the aircon main power. Use paint brush is good enough.

Dont waste $$$
Pump refrigerant is actually bullshxt if your aircon copper piping has no leakage.
