If this occurs the freezer may still get cold while the refrigerator will not get cold.

I am going to go behind the unit and follow your instructions. You can test the start relay with a multimeter and replace it if necessary. Kitchen aid refrigerator lead lights not working. Unit was diagnosed with a bad control board which ended up throwing mixed signals to the fans causing them to cycle on off intermittently and not.
The fan in the back of the freezer appears to be working and it is blowing air out of the vent. If the fan blade does not turn freely replace the fan motor. Repeated the reset process and it works again. I had a technician look at it and he said everything was woking fine.
This is a terrible product and kitchenaid should give me a new refrigerator. I just turned it back on and will see if it gets frosty. The start relay helps to start the compressor and thus cool the refrigerator. My 2013 kitchenaid freezer wont freeze my food.

Maybe your kitchenaid is having temperature control issues or freezer problems such as an ice maker that won.
My kitchenaid freezer starts to warm and will not cool. In the past few months the over temperature reset keeps beeping. If the evaporator fan motor is not working the freezer will not cool. Another possible cause of a kitchenaid refrigerator not cooling is a faulty start relay.

On most refrigerators the fan motor will not run when the door is open. Yesterday the over temperature reset button beeps again i pressed it.

My fix was to turn both the fridge and freezer controls off then flip compressor switch. 3 days later no so good.
The fridge and freezer are still not cooling. Kitchenaid side by side fridge not cooling. I apparently works for awhile.
