Cooling problem with freezer and fridge temporarily solved by reset

After about 12 yrs working perfectly, my high-end Profile fridge has a serious cooling problem. By turning off power for 30 secs (a “reset”), it works perfectly again for about 8-12 hours, but then freezer temp climbs to the teens F and fridge temp to 50-60 F. Once the problem starts, there is no cold air sent to the fridge through the damper, and what I believe is the compressor sound is ongoing, but a higher pitched (fan?) sound has stopped. Two expensive service visits by GE replaced the damper and the system board without fixing the problem. I limp along by resetting about twice a day, but would be extremely grateful for any suggestions as to a cause of my problem consistent with the above behavior, and/or possible diagnostics to pinpoint it.
