OK. I'll report back tomorrow. If that doesn't do the trick, do you have any other thoughts as to where the problem is?It’s the square bracket that holds the pilot in place, and the ground wire attaches to. Clean all contacts.

That's my thought, and I'm trying to figure out what that terminal is called to see if I can replace it (looks like three solder joints).If the ground is good, the only thing I can think of, is it’s. grounding in the board spark terminal somehow. I wouldn’t know how to repair.
I can't hear the spark at the pilot, other than very briefly once or twice since starting to troubleshoot. I hear (and can feel) clicking at the board, I think at the ignitor contact area but hard to be sure. No spark visible there.If you can't hear the spark by the igniter, then it's most likely a bad board. If you can hear the spark but no ignition it's either a clogged gas tube to the igniter or a corroded igniter assemble or, you have no gas to the unit. Pull and visually inspect the igniter assembly. You can also remove the igniter tube from the gas valve and blow into it and see if it's obstructed.
