Default gas fireplace won't start-up - pilot is lit

If you have an "automatic pilot system" meaning when you flip the switch the
pilot light comes on, unlike a standing pilot light which is always on. Now
you flip the switch the pilot light comes on but then nothing happens. You
wait and wait and the fire does not come on??? OK, remove the bottom access
panel, with a flashlight look inside. Find the battery pack that should be
laying next to the modules. Replace the batteries, clean the contacts if
necessary. Solved our problem, hopefully yours too, such an easy fix
