I have an Amana ARB2217C bottom freezer with working lights, fan, and freezer. But the refrigerator doesn't seem to want to cool. I think it stopped a couple of days ago.I've turned the thermostat from coldest to medium cold in both the freezer and the refrigerator.

The problem has to be in the damper control inside the refrigerator section.

Disconnect the refrigerator from power and remove the food from the top shelf. The damper control is in the box near the top of the refrigerator section behind the temperature control knob.

Remove the knob and cover until you can access the damper control. You can prop the damper control open with a pencil or something to make the refrigerator work until you get a part if you need to. Here is the part you need.

Your refrigerator probably has an issue with its "damper control assembly", which regulates cold air coming from the freezer compartment. Contact an appliance service company.
