Take a reading on the thermopile output with a multimeter set to VDC. Record the mV output with the pilot only. Then turn the burner on. Record that reading & report back with your results.
Im guessing your fireplace is bvent given it's model name. There should be a limit switch on the top of the fireplace box near the draft hood. If so that is a likely culprit
Thanks man I didn’t think it had a limit switch but that makes perfect sense I just ordered one I’ll let you know if that works
