I would be suspicious of your refrigerant level, it can leak over time.

This one was used as extra freezer and refrigerator space for awhile when we moved here 20 years ago and then it was turned off and not used for at least 10 years.   Well in my current need of making space in the garage I fired it back up to check everything to get it ready for sale.  It freezes and the refrigerator compartment gets cool like it should, well I haven't put a thermometer in each compartment, but it appears to me to be working.  Except..... it never quits running.  Not quite true  it runs about 95% of the time. Without having door opened or anything disturbed.   We have had such good luck with this era of combination freezer refrigerator I thought it might be worth something to those just getting on their feet.  I've cleaned the whole guts under the compartments and it really wasn't all that bad. The coils are clean as can be.  I doubt this thing is worth more than $100 running as it should but if I could find a cheap fix it might be worth spending $20 on a part or so.

I'm pretty proficient electronics wise.  Besides if I could get this running properly somebody might take this off my hands and I won't have to deal with getting rid of it. It would take my loader tractor to get it in to my P/U bed. Big heavy sucker.   Help?  PS: I don't remember the last time I threw something away but I do remember it was traumatic.!   😊
