Hotpoint FFA70 Fridge Freezer stopped working?

At first I had noticed that at the back of my fridge, groceries started to freeze and that there was always water sitting on top of the hole in the back of the fridge.
At some point the "Food Defrost Alert" LED came on and eventually the "Freezer High Temp" LED. At this point the fridge and the freezer stopped working.

the start device called (ptc) on the compressor stopped changing over into run condition. how this works is. compressor is cold high temp device on the compressor electrical is reset in normally closed (nc) postion. compressor start in the soft start and as the compressor temP rises trips the high temp device in return relay switches over to run mode and keeps the compressor going until reaches the set tepM for the freezer and then cuts out. and contioues its cycle.
