Sorry Chris it is so hot here my brain isn't working real good . I only removed the outside burner cover , used a real pipe cleaner (scratchy) in wherever I could , then used canned air to gently blow out . The tech said spiders love to build webs in there .the canned air doesn't get the web . The pipe cleaner is important for that reason . You can see I also have a flea collar in there as he suggested . He also said to not use air from a compressor , too strong . I hope it is simple for you and not anything else . It's all I have .

I think the term "orifice" is often used and I think sometimes its called a "jet". But whatever the name, if it's clear and you can see daylight through it and the ingniter is clicking away, I really wonder if there's any propane coming out the tube.

I suspect some electronic part has failed as no gas comes out

Where would the filter be? Is this the filter? (photo)
