My fidge will not getting cold in the freezer or refrigerator. How do you check it to see if it needs freon. It's running but not making ice or getting cold.

Here are your parts
Replacement parts for WHIRLPOOL ED25CQXHB01 | AppliancePartsPros.com

Here is the tech sheet

It is important that you be sure that the compressor is running. It should be warm and you should be able to feel it vibrating.

Remove the cover inside the freezer section so you can see the evaporator coils.
If they only have frost in one area, usually where the freon enters the coils from the compressor. You have a low freon condition.
If they have no frost then either the compressor is toast, you are out of freon or an orifice in the system is plugged.
Any of the above is usually the death knell for a fridge. You need a pro to repair it and it will not be cheap. Also there is no use in refilling a unit with freon unless the leak is found and repaired. This can be difficult.

Here is the warranty sheet for this unit so if it is under 5 years old the sealed system should be covered under warranty.
