My fridge was not cooling but the freezer was working fine so I checked the evap coil and found it to be frozen over so I replaced the defrost heater, thermostat and timer (all purchased from here). Now the fridge is working but the freezer is frosting over really bad. I have checked the door seal and it appears to be fine. Any suggestions?

Go in the back and turn the defrost timer till the compressor stops, then pull the back freezer panel and check for defrost heater operation. If no-go,remove power and check your wiring connections. Heater and defrost thermostat must be in series. Would help if you had a meter. Rather rare new parts fail.
