Device called a thermocouple. Turns off the gas if it does not sense a flame. Check with your local gas appliance repair company, have them replace. Fairly cheap item, and they DO go bad.

Why does gas fireplace give off fumy smell?

It may be a good Idea to have your fireplace serviced by a qualified professional to insure you have no harmful emissions from it. A few things that can cause a fireplace to emit odors are: New fireplaces have what is referred to as a burn in period, normally 8 to 12 hours, during which it may emit some rather strong odors. This is a result of oils and paints used in production baking off or curring and should subside after the recommended burn in period has been met. It is not necessary to run it continuously to reach the recommended period. It is normal for a fireplace that has not been used for some time ( summer ) to emit a musty odor when it is first put in service. this is caused by dust in the venting and on the appliance burning off. Contributing factors like pet dander and cleaning products can add to the odor and make it quite strong. Normally these type of odors will subside after a couple hours of operation. Vent free fireplaces ( no matter what the manufacture says ) always have an odor. Make sure you have a carbon monoxide detector in your home and follow local building codes or manufacturer's specifications for installing it.
