Started with pilot light working and having to wiggle the on/off switch to get the fire lit. Then the pilot light went out. Can light the pilot and burns correctly. As soon as I move from pilot to on the pilot goes out. Vacuumed and sanded the thermopile and thermocouple.

Checked the thermocouple at 15.2 and thermopile at 445. Switch at 26.
