This video is part 4 of a multi-part video series focusing in on how to diagnosing a failed GE control board. This specific video will discuss what to check if the front touch panel is not responding to touch or has no lights illuminated.
Most of the GE side by side refrigerators are going to use either a WR55X10942, WR55X10942P control board, or some very close variant of this board from this affiliate link:

If your temperature controls are on the front panel, your part is likely WR55X10859 and can be found from this affiliate link:

If your temperature controls are inside your refrigerator section and only Ice and Water controls are on the front panel, your part is likely WR55X10444 or WR55X10438 which is unfortunately a discontinued part. Your best bet would bet to try and locate this part on your favorite auction site. I have not tried to install a WR55X10859 in place of the dispenser only types. I can not confirm if this would work or not.
If you have not found it already, you should have a wiring diagram tucked in to the temperature control box in the upper refrigerator section. This can be accessed by removing the two screws with a 1/4in nut driver.
Common symptoms of a failed control board for the touch panel would be:
- Buttons not responding to touch
- Lights not coming on
- Ice and Water Not Working
