Coleman 5040 Patio Heater w/ Light - Light works, Heater does not

Igniter clicks, but the heating element doesn't kick on. Have tried inserting a long match into the pilot hole...nothing happens. Any suggestions? Does this appear to be a valve problem?

BE VERY CAREFUL sticking matches in any propane appliance! With the gas OFF see if you can physically see the spark when you push the ignitor, if yes, the problem may be the regulator or bottle pressure the only test i am aware of for the regulator is replacement.
