Does the compressor run (vibrating)?

I do not like any guessing. Post as much as possible descriptions on everything what is going on with the refrigerator and we will go from there.

Check for 120VAC at connector J7-9 orange wire to TERMINAL-J8 black wire at the main control board.

Do you have 120VAC?

If no, replace the main control board.

If yes, the compressor has gone bad. If the refrigerator is less than 5 years old, the compressor can be under the warranty. You have to verify it with GE.

- The main control board Part number: AP4436216

Hello Gene sorry for delay .after removing control board(and before ordering a new one) i found a cold solder joint on a componant on back of board(a dark spot0 moving componant resulted in movement of the solder connection an back of board .resoldered connection..frig is 40 degrees at 5 setting frezzer is 0 degrees ar 5 setting ..water and ice work ok . i lucked out i guess ..its been running fine since last post.( cold solder joint was not on any J7 or J8 connector..thanks again for saving me a lot of expense..respectfully, narocroc
