hotpoint freezer running too cold

I have a hotpoint ffa97 fridge/freezer the motor and fan seem to be constantly running and the frezzer is so cold it has gone off the scale of the thermometer whereas the fridge is running too hot at about 10c it is icing up around the door seal and in the handle at the top of the freezer door. I have defrosted and cleared any blockage through to the condenser tray but the problem persists. Any refrigeration tech any solutions

Door seal?

is it frost free

I think it will be, thats what the 'ff' stands for in the model number.

Yes it is frost free when eorking normally and the door seal seems to be in good condition

Good suction?

Also I wonder if theres a build up of ice inside the rear panel.

yes my thoughts defrost the freezer but not enough time or heat to melt the hidden ice in the circulation voids

Thanks to all for replies but I have now resolved the problem. I am a retired brown/white goods engineer but had no training or experience in the refrigeration field. However I did suspect either the control board or the freezer sensor and took a gamble on it being the pcb. Hotpoint guilty in my opinion of gross profiteering charge almost £100 for the small pcb (Taiwan probably knock them out for a couple of quid for hotpoint) but I obtained a board through amazon for£82 still far too much. After fitting went through full display test and after ten or fifteen minutes triggerd the system and has been running at correct temperatures for the last three days. The original problem motor/fan running constantly freezer freezing to minus 50 off the scale and fridge running hot at room temperature. Cause: Faulty PCB.
ps anyone reading this for ref with similar symptons must first of all completely defrost freezer for 48hrs as a blocked iced up drainage channel to condension tray at rear
would give similar symotoms,
