The frig stays in the +30 to +40° F and never gets warmer. Now i only have one thermometer, so i cant check them both at the same time. GE GTS18GBSDRWW ideas what is wrong and how to test? tks, pa

BTW I unplugged the fridge and 4 hours later opened the freezer and all the ice was still cold and dry. I then left the door open and within 3 minutes the ice was melting and dripping.
