The subject line pretty much says it all.
Freezer is cold; -9C (15F)
Fridge is way too warm, +14C (57F) and rising with the ambient temp: 29C (84F)
We are in southern Mexico. No parts or service here. We are supposed to be on the road to PV in the morning.
Thanks
Actually the freezer is NOT OK.
Freeze temps should be below 10*F before food section can start cooling.
Your cooling unit is NOT functioning properly.
Are you on electric........low AC voltage/bad heater/lack of cooling air flow
Are you on propane........is flame ON./lack of cooling air flow
Can you swap between electric & gas?
The cooling fans are located near top of fridge/roof vent---top vent in slide-out.
They are thermostat controlled......snap disc on upper condenser fin.
T-stat closes at 130*F (tubing temp) starting fans. Opens at 115*F stopping fans
Here is a service/troubleshooting manual to help diagnosis problem(s)

Absorption fridges cool or don't----no in between (freezer cooling and food section not)
