Problem baking illumination

So I'm trying to bake illumination to an image file and I'm ending up with the UV grid overlaid on top of the image.
Not exactly what I wanted. I've been googling this problem for a few days now and I'm coming up empty on a fix. (I'm sure it's some small thing I'm overlooking.)

Anyway, here is the baked texture so you see what I'm talking about.

    Where and how are you saving it?

    Sorry for the Delay.
    I'm not saving to the default directory nor am I auto applying the texture if that is what you are asking.
    Actually, is there a specific directory I should be saving the image to?

    Is this in the wrong section? If it is can it be moved?
    I was just thinking baking textures might not be considered a "New User" concept.

    Ok, So I asked this question in the new users help forum, but didn't get an answer. The shader baker probably isn't classified as a "New User" topic so I'm moving it here.

    I’m trying to bake illumination to an image file and I’m ending up with the UV grid overlaid on top of the image.
    Not exactly what I wanted. I'm using the AoA advanced ambient light and followed the tips section on baking in the documentation but I haven't found anything that would remotely explain why that grid is there. I'm also saving the image as png to a different directory and I'm using Daz's default shader.

    Here's what the image looks like after baking.
