If the model number above your post is correct the your model has a 67003411 Auto Damperand if the damper door is all the way open causing the fresh food compartment to be flooded with freezing cold air from the freezer side. It is not uncommon for thes dampers to fail due to a leak in the thermostat on the side of coiled up on the damper. Look at damper t confirm there is no frost keeping the damper door open and if you like I will post how to examine by taking the damper out and placing the damper thermostat coil and dipping it into a glass of ice and a little water. The damper door should shut if dipped into ice water. If not the damper will need to be replaced in order for fresh food section temperatures to be regulated. I will be here should you have questions, Thanks Sea Breeze

Your Hotpoint fridge is designed to operate at a temperature ranging from 0.5 degrees in the coldest part up to 5 degrees inthe warmest part.
As warm air rises and cold air falls it is safe to say that the best way to store your food is to place it in the most appropriate shelf compartment, as shown in the diagram below.

not only is the fresh food compartment at freezing the entire refirgerator is as well. I think it has something to do with the thermostat control because no matter which way I turn it the remp. does not change.
Yes it could be the thermostat if it cintinues to run even after changing the settings. Sounds like you are on to a solution even without my help, that's good! Thanks for getting back with me and letting me know where you are on finding a solution, Thanks John Tripp
