Hi all. Hoping there might be someone with fridge repair expertise here. I have a wine/beer fridge with two seperate compartments, and neither is getting cold anymore.

The compressor appears to start and work, and gets very hot.
The condensor fan is running
The condensor is clean and dust free, as is the area around it
The area around the condensor coil does not seem to be getting warm, so the condensor fan is expelling cool air, rather than warm air as I would expect
The evaporator fans (one for each compartment) are working. (One was faulty, but I have replaced it,)
The evaporators don't seem to be getting cold.

Any ideas? Does this indicate that the refrigerant has leaked out? Or might this be something to do with the thermostat?

Any suggestions for what to check next would be appreciated!
