Could be the defrost drain is frozen. Are you getting water dripping in the back of the fridge, center of top shelf, under the vent that comes down from the freezer?
I currently work in apartment maintenance and have had several of these. If it is a frozen drain, the cure is to completely defrost it, then feed a piece of wire about 12" down the drain and wrap the top end of it around the defrost element. I keep scraps of 14-2 NMWG for this. Leave it long at first, put a slight bend in one end, bend other end at 90 degrees. Slight-bent end goes into the drain, 90 degree end you use as a handle and gently rotate/screw it in. The drain isn't a straight shot, it has two elbows at the top, hence the slight bend(to help navigate the elbows) and the handle. Cut to length when it's in far enough and give a couple wraps around the heating element.
If your defrost timer is a mechanical style(not a circuit board) you can stick a flathead screwdriver up in the hole and turn the timer to initiate the defrost cycle. This will let you verify that the defrost element is coming on. Also could be a bad defrost thermostat, which can be tested for continuity with a simple meter; should be closed when cold and open when hot.
