The freezer seems to be cooler again, but it seems like it it cycles between warmer and cooler. Is there some sort of timer that could be bad and if so is this something that we could do?

That changes the picture entirely. You might have a intermittent control module in this. If you have a meter you could check.You also could have a compressor overheating and shutting down. Just observe what is not running when it gets warmer.

If we bought an intermittent control module, would it be too difficult or dangerous for us to replace ? I looked on the part list and only saw a icemaker control module. Is that the part we might need? Could you possibly direct us in the removal and installation of the module? My husband has enough tools for the job and could probably figure it out with some help.

It needs to be confirmed you have a bad control module part 8201660 I still feel you have refrigeration problems. If I where there, I would measure the evaporator temperature with my laser thermometer, would tell the status of the system.
If you have a thermometer,measure the lowest freezer temperature and post.

I have a Kenmore refrigerator with freezer on top. Frig is working fine but freezer is not. I can hear the motor running in the freezer. What should I check next?:confused:

What is the complete model nu8mber of the refrigerator?
What are exact measured temperatures in both compartments?
Can you a frost on the rear panel in the freezer?
