Fridge Quit!

Model Number: MTB1948DRW Brand: Maytag Age: 5 - 10 years

Appliance Parts from AppliancePartPros.com

When we open the door to the fridge or top freezer, the light comes on, but neither fridge or freezer is cooling. We had this problem about a month ago. We cleaned all the food out to put it elsewhere, then it suddenly started working again. We thought the problem was a fluke and it was OK, but here we are again. Are there some fairly simple steps I can take to diagnose the problem and possibly repair this beast myself? Thanks!
