Does cooling unit/condenser fins get hot?
You can 'force' cool to test if cooling unit will function'
Unplug electric heat element leads from circuit board and wire them directly into 120VAC Outlet....this will energize the element continuously force cooling of fridge
Freezer should get down to 10*F (lower) and food compartment 38*F (lower) IF cooling unit can flow ammonia (vapor to liquid to supercold vapor to warm ammonia and repeat cycle)
Let it operated 12HRS at least before checking temps.
