Seems as though it's not restarting after an auto defrost cycle has occurred and resetting the control board by power cycling it, starts it working again
-
Depending on what method is used, the refrigerator conducts an auto defrost cycle either after every 12 hours elapsed time or after 12 hours accumulated compressor run time.
+
When a defrost cycle starts, the compressor and evaporator fans are both turned off and the defrost heater is turned on to melt the accumulated ice off the evaporator unit. At the end of the cycle, both the compressor and the fans are turned on again, to drive the temps back down to their set operating temps. The defrost cycle usually lasts for 20-25 minutes

Given that the problem appears after ~2 days it might be the latter.

Perform the ''Self-diagnostic function → 2) Self-diagnostic function during normal operation,'' as shown in the service manual link and check if any error codes are being displayed. The error codes and their meaning are shown on the following pages i.e. p.55 → p.56
