Recently moved into a home that has an undercounter beverage fridge with 2 zones and an ice maker.

Last week, noticed it wasn't as cold. It's only cooling to around 50 degrees and obviously won't make ice either.

I changed the starter relay to the compressor and the evaporator fan is working.

Any other ideas how to troubleshoot before I start looking for replacements?

This is the unit: LINK

Yes. Turned it off for a few days waiting for the compressor relay to come in.

Same result once is restarted.

Replace thermistor? Get the tech sheet and see if there is a diagnosis mode?

Also from the looking up the model number in the link you provided, that Danby unit might have a defrost timer. If I’m not mistaken a bad defrost timer can also cause the symptoms you are describing.

Will look into that. The ice maker stopped working before I noticed the cooling issue so thats tracks.
