there is a flap in the refrigerator side usually near or behind the light bulb the freezer side is thermostatically controlled with the compressor being controlled. On the refrigerator side the cold air comes from the freezer side. when this flap is open the refrigerator will cool continuously, Check the flap or the duct assembly here is an illustration of the part http://www.repairclinic.com/Kenmore-Refrigerator-Model-10674219400-ID-927868-Duct-Venting-Parts
you dont need to lower the temp. if everything is freezing at the bottom of the fridge, and not the entire fridge compartment, then your problem is your freezer fan, or evaporator fan, is failing to circulate the air clockwise through the unit, you need to replace that fan motor.
What are your temp controls set to? If the controls are set to the max setting and it won't reach temp, you could have a broad range of problems ranging from bad door gaskets, to bad temp controls, to a low refrigerant charge, to possible a failing mechanical part such as a fan motor or compressor.
The coils are on the bottom of your fridg next to the compressor you can see them from the back. or if yo take the plastic panel in the front of the weels you can see it also. the only other element i think of is the thermostat unit that in your fridg, but if your unit cold then it is not the thermostat.
That is not a complete model# so it is hard to know exactly what you have but the old fridges (kenmore and others) had a pretty straight shot from the water holding tank to the tube that shot water in your glass so it was typically colder.
The newer ones have extra plumbing for filters along with tiny holding tanks. Most manufactures have gone out of their way to make the tanks not freeze but in doing so have made the water more "cool" instead of "cold".
It is not in the way you set it but more of the way things have become. Please give a complete model# (from inside the unit on the sticker and not off the owners manual) if you need more assistance.
We have a Kenmore Coldspot Model # 106.8770687 and the freezer is cold and keeping things frozen, but seems to be frosting over and the refrigerator is warm at 40 to 50 degrees ... any help regarding what to check is helpful! Or a schematic / manual
Inside the fresh food compartment look for an opening that will allow you to turn the defrost timer clockwise slowly. When you hear it click the refrigerator should go into defrost. If the timer is bad it will need replaced. Let me know. Below is a photo of timer.
Part number 6
You're frozen up. Defrost completely. Then, clean your condenser. Make sure to never leave open containers in the fridge...water condenses into ice. If you still have problems, you may be low on gas.
