So The freezer is cold, along with the bottom half of fridge. However, the top half of the fridge is not that cold. The evap fan is not turning on. I took the evap fan out and did OHM test. Never left zero. So.. could it be the control timer board or the thermostat? I clicked the light switch in the fridge 5 times then again 5 times to start the cooling but still no evap fan.

If you showed zero ohms in the evaporator fan motor, replace it.

No. If the fan was really 0 ohms it would blow the breaker as this is a dead short.
You are probably only seeing 0 because you are on too high of a meter scale.

Try measuring the voltage across the fan.
If it is 120 volts AC and the fan does not run, the fan is toast.
