The variable speed of the fan points to the motherboard. It is part 801 on diagram 10. Replacement parts for GE GSS20IEPHWW | AppliancePartsPros.com

The speed of the fan will affect the cooling of the fridge.
You don't have a defrost timer. The motherboard does that job.
If you have a defrost problem, the evaporator coils behind the back cover in the freezer will be cover in ice. Not just frost.
