I suggest you replace both thermal switch and fan. Those original fans don't last long.
We had a dead cooling unit on our 4 door Norcold when we purchased our Discovery.
installed an Amish cooling unit. Four years later still running strong. Our fridge has two fans on the cooling unit. last year the fans started squealing, one of the fans froze up.
When temps started hitting 80 plus the freezer would stay frozen but the lower fridge started rising into the mid 40's!!
NOT GOOD!
Pulled the fridge, replaced the fans and back to normal!
Make SURE the fans blow up!!!
I actually pulled a questionabal fridge to replace the fan on the backside and it was blowing down! you need good upward convection behind those absorption fridges.
