The most common reason for this issue is ice accumulation behind the interior plastic liner which is keeping the air from flowing properly. There are a few ways to fix it, but the easiest is to unplug the appliance, open the doors, and let it thoroughly thaw. This could take a few days. You can also take off the interior panels to get at the ice if you want to hurry the process along, but you can also just wait.
Sop up the water, and when it appears to be done thawing, plug it back in. It'll be just fine.

You have to pull out the sensor from the board and test with tester, both sensor should read the resistance of 10,000 to 20,000 ohms. The reading that you show is very low it means that the thermistor is out of range and need replacement.

Defrost by turning off for 48 hours and the unit will work ok (for a while)
Its a design fault common to many Samsung Side By Sides

Heya, I am pretty sure this is the samsing model that has an external condensor coil. You should try Unpluging your unit, see if the condensor coil is covered in yuck, it sounds weird that you have ice on the fridge side and not alot on the freezer side. Have a look and if its not that It prolly would be best to get someone out to have a look before replacing parts.
Hope this helps
