I have a 7 year old frigidare kegerator with 3 faucets. It doesn't have a temp control and lately the temp has been rising. It is still working but the temp is now above 50. Any idea's?

Might be a compressor problem. By the time you get someone to come out to look at it, and repair the problem, the money might be better spent on a new unit. You might even be able to salvage the tower and taps from the current unit.

Make sure the condenser is clean and air flows through it nicely first

Are you sure it doesn't have some sort of temp control? Seems to me it would have one someplace - maybe hidden around the back near the compressor?
If so and if you are lucky, may be just a defective controller which would a cheaper problem to resolve than a compressor. If you culdn't get a new one, you could bypass it and buy an external controller to switch the fridge on/off (as I have on my kegerator) for around $50.
Just a thought - good luck with it anyway.
