** The display panel has been out **
Is the control just not displaying anything but functioning otherwise?
The control's display is usually all internal to the control so if the display is just not working in most cases the control needs to be replaced.

** and started beeping continuously. Does anyone know if this is indicative of needing to replace the display/control panel or the relay board or is it something else? **
The control beeping should usually be accompanied by an error message on the display. The error message usually helps to pinpoint the possible cause of the condition.
Since your display is not working there is no telling what might be the cause of the error message at this time. It could be just because of a problem in the control itself but could be because of several other problems in the appliance. To troubleshoot further a working display will likely be needed.
