Any setting above zero and things just freeze up till I eventually set thermostat to zero. It just started doing this a couple of months ago.

The evaporator fan in or behind the freezer blows the air through. There is an adjustment to open and close this vent to allow more or less cold air in. The fridge temp control may not be closing it.
