Fridge sat for several months before a power on and when set to #5 setting for both it just blows out room temp air even after a day running. Everything looks clean in back and all fans are blowing as well. What might be happening? Thanks!

Still just room temp air pushing through the freezer/fridge compartments. The fridge turns on/off just fine. Is there something possibly with the control board or starter relay? Good way to test that?
