GE side by side not running, cooling or freezer working.

No lights showing on front control board, unit not running at all, power available at the outlet. Removed back panel with nut driver, tested for power on the motherboard, 120 volt present, 120 volt present at the compressor relay, 12 volt DC not present at leads going to front control board. Determined the mother board was defective!!!
Ordered a reconditioned mother board from Parts Doctor at 1/3 the cost of an OEM replacement. Paid $25 for overnight shipping. RECEIVED BOARD IN LESS THAN 20 HOURS!!! The board was a perfect fit, the refrigerator started right up and is running perfectly!!!
THANK YOU PARTS DOCTOR!!!!!!!!!! I REPAIRED MY GE SIDE BY SIDE FOR $115!!!!!!!!!!!

Problem
Stopped cooling and freezing.
Tools
Screwdriver and needle-nose pliers.
Repair & Advice
The refrigerator and freezer stopped working but the lights still worked. After an online search, I concluded that the control board was fried after a power outage. My wife was already looking at a new refrigerator but I was able to fix ours for a tenth of the price in ten minutes.
