I have had a similar problem. In my fridge, i found 3 bad electrolictic capacitors in the main board. If you know how to dissolder, it is possible to replace them at low cost.
Get the refrigerator out of the power source and let it discharge. Find the main board casing and open it.
Check for stuffed capacitors. It is probably the ones that powers the relay. Or you can replace the whole board. There are videos on Youtube about it.
Good luck!

If there is no cooling on the fridge but the freezer is cooling then the compressor and gas pressure seems good. So to check the set for blocks in the ducts we must shut off the fridge.Keep it off while you clean and check the evaporator for frost. If frost is seen it is a good indication as the compressor is working with sufficient gas within.
Now after about 6 hours plug in the fridge to start. Observe cooling to happen in about one hour and ice to from under three hours.
Earlier make sure that the thermostat was set to normal mode for freezer and fridge. However if Ice forms then observe the fridge for about 24 hours for cooling to continue and the fridge to cut off . If not the auto defrost timer, or the thermostat must be checked.
The fan making noise can be due to frost build up .If defrost timer works but frost keeps forming check while the compressor shuts if the heaters are working, check continuity of the heaters.
Do not set thermostat up to max but keep it to normal .So try this test from the outside and make your observations so that we come to the solution.
