hi guys havin a bit o bother here , freezer is cold -15 fridge warm 4 degrees , compressor is on constantly , fridge is in good nick no dust or debris on grills at the rear , the control display is non operational , the only thing it will do is turn it on or off when the other buttons are pressed the time clock starts moving constantly and it wont stop , i removed the panel in the freezer compartment and it is caked with ice , and the evap fan is also iced up it still moves freely though , any clues thanks

Empty freezer,switch off for 48 hours so all that ice can defrost,or do it with a hairdryer,switch off and DONT use any metallic objects.
If it happens again in a couple of weeks you may have a defrost issaue,if not,Bingoooooo !
