Although the reset procedures in this thread are obviously great and simple workarounds to the problem of resetting this damn valve, I also wonder if there may be some secondary interlock linked to the gas pressure which would cause the valve to retain an error condition as long as it is detecting gas pressure? The led light will go off and the pilot will shut off as well. Correction, meant to say gas control valve, not thermostat. Pull cover straight out to remove it.
