Just to add one more detail, if you see a bright yellow deposit around the bottom of the refrigeration unit, then you have experienced the failure, and the cooling unit needs to be repaired or replaced. The yellow deposit is a chromate corrosion inhibitor that is part of the refrigerant mixture. If the yellow deposit is visible, then the refrigerant has escaped, and obviously the refrigerator will no longer cool.
