Will this sort out my problem?

My fridge's automatic defrost is not working - frost quickly builds up on the rear wall.

    This is likely to cure your problem if the compressor is running continuously and the fridge temperature is below 1 degree. If the ice is only at the top of the wet wall they system may be low in gas or a weak compressor (expensive and not DIY repairable),or if the capillary has become detached from the wet wall (you can not check this) then the appliance may not be repairable.
