DVR 33 RW Direct Vent fireplace insert
Worked flawlessly since 2012 when I purchased the home
Grandson placed blanket on hot glass and it melted onto the glass
I Removed glass for cleaning ( no luck so far) but did not disturb logs

After I reinstalled door the glass the pilot gave some trouble but I got it lit
Now there is a difference, when I turn on the stove the flame may not spread to the logs the first time or spreads and burns normally then goes out after say 2 minutes.
The pilot is staying on.
I think I have a back draft problem but not sure.
There are 2 clips or handles to lock the glass door in place and I think I got those secured ok
 
It sounds as though you have a dirty or bad thermocouple.
