Default kegerator temps/defrost?

Ok,

So I made the suggested modifications and have been using my unit for over a month now. At first, the unit worked fine and was able to keep the temperature around 35 degreese. Lateley the beer has started to foam again and I checked the temperature on my Brewers Edge Temp Controller and it said 44 degrees.

It appears that the compressor is running all the time and it cannot reach temperatures below 44. Has anyone else seen this problem or know how to fix it. Perhaps I need a defrost cycle? I did defrost the back cooling plate with hot water, but I didn't have time to do an entire unit defrost. I don't want to burn out my compressor. Any help would be appreciated, thanks.
