This is a convertible refrigerator or freezer and over the course of the last month has quit cooling properly in the refrigerator mode. I changed the slightly damaged door gasket and it does not help. The compressor runs as it should but only cools down to 55 degrees. There is no ice or frost on the evaporator. It stays at the same temperature (55*) in the freezer mode. Is it possible that the defrost is staying continually on even though the compressor is running on this type of unit, Or do you think its a problem with freon level.

Here is the wiring diagram

Since the compressor runs it is not stuck in defrost as the compressor and the evaporator fan are shut off during defrost.

Sounds like a sealed system problem to me.
When the compressor is running if no frost appears on the evaporator coils then it is a sealed system problem.

I am assuming that the compressor runs all the time except when the unit goes through a efrost cycle.
