Here are your parts
Replacement parts for AMANA ARB2205CW REF - BOTTOM MOUNTS | AppliancePartsPros.com

Is the fan in the freezer running. It is required to blow cold air into the fresh food section.
If the unit has a freezer door switch you may have to close this to get the fan on.

I would check the freezer temperature, it should be around 0 to 5 degrees F.
Sometimes the food will still be frozen (under 32 degrees F) but it is not cold enough to cool the fresh food side properly.

Check that the damper (Item 18 in Section 3) is open. This is what actually regulates the amount of cold air entering the fresh food area. If you click on it's picture you will get a better view. You will see that it has it's own thermostat which opens/closes the louvers.

If all OK remove the cover from inside the freezer so you can see the coils, you may have the early signs of a defrost problem.
If the coils are heavily iced/frosted over you have a defrost problem.
