1st suggestion: Much more information!
How long have you had this kegerator?
Has this happened before?
Is this the standard included thermostat or has it been modified?
What make is this kegerator and how old is it? (no amount of information is too much)
Do you have any experience with refrigeration systems?
What are the circumstances prior to your observation? (ie: new-keg? change in environment? anything 'different' at all?)

The Kegerator and s a Vevor and is about 7 months old. Never had a problem until now. Original thermostat. I don’t have any experience in refrigeration. It stays inside in my man cave.
 
Has it gone back down or stayed the same? If you added too many warm beers it can raise the temp and stay there for a few hours to a day until it finally cools it all down.
 
thats scary since i have a vevor . i think there is a drain hole on the hump . idr off hand. if there is , check the drain hole on the hump . if its frozen or clogged i think it can affect temperature . you can clear it by blowing air through it sometimes. i have done this with a few fridges in the past and it worked.


dr google agrees :

Yes, a clogged drain hole in your refrigerator can definitely prevent it from cooling properly. The drain hole, usually located in the freezer compartment, is crucial for draining water that accumulates during the defrost cycle. If it's blocked, water can build up inside, potentially causing leaks and affecting the cooling process.
