You do realize that with most fridges that the freezer section is what keeps the fridge side cool right? If your freezer is working and your fridge is not, it is usually because of one thing and one thing only. No cold air is making it to the fridge. This could be because your defrost timer has failed and a collection of ice is now blocking the air passage, the flap (fridge temperature control) has closed blocking air, or the fan that blows the air has failed. Food blocking the air passage is not unheard of as well.
Fwiw, transport your new fridge with the suction line to the compressor facing up. This will be the larger of the tubes going into your compressor. It will be the coolest while the fridge is running. The reason for this is, it keeps the oil in the compressor and there will be no need to let it sit upright for 24hrs. Maybe an hour or so would be okay.
