Pull the freezer back panel and descibe the frost pattern, heavy frost all over, or light frost just at the bottom of the coils.

Inspect the defrost heater, most probable failure.

I am confused, are the freezer coils frozen all over, or just partially. A stabilizeds freezer temperature reading would be helpfull.
