There's plenty of ice, it will not dispense(crushed or cube), the water dispenser works fine. All lights come on but nothing happens.

Model number?
** GE Side by Side **
I'm afraid that is not enough information to identify the appliance in question. What is needed is its exact model number.

Once you post it we can look up what appliance design you're dealing with to see what components it has that could be responsible for your symptom.

Auger motor getting power.

On GE's new fridge models the ice dispenser auger motor can just freeze up from too much moisture around them. GE came out with a 'boot' to cover it to try to prevent such issues. If you find it frozen up, thaw it and install the boot if not already present.

The auger motor (see image below) could have just burnt out. Power to the motor but it not functioning would usually indicate the motor itself is the problem (except for the above instance).
Lastly no power at the auger motor could mean the dispenser control (another electronic board) may be defective and not sending power to the auger motor.
A start will be getting to the auger motor to see if it is at least being powered when activated or not.
