I would jam the damper door almost 1/2 way open. If your temperatures now become "normal" you most probably have either bad ff thermistors, or a bad motherboard. All the thermistors measure around 5K ohm at room temperature, if you have a meter, just check.

I have just found my heater tube in the freezer is blown( black). would that have anything to do with my problem?

If defrost is not working at all, you would still get good performance for a few days till it frosts over again.
