Bottom Storage Bin Lock Solenoid

Hi Folks - this is my first post (joined iRV2 yesterday) so bear with me - I have a 2005 Monaco Dynasty. One of the lower bin doors has developed a faulty solenoid (locks ok but won't unlock without use of the manual key). I've accessed the locking mechanism and cleaned/greased the actual lock without any improvement. Unfortunately the access port does not permit access to the actual solenoid(only the bitter end of the solenoid control rod). The only way to access/replace(?) the solenoid appears to be removal of the whole inner plastic door lining which is fastened to the door with numerous pop rivets.
Does anyone know the name of the solenoid maker and is there a simpler way to gain access without removing the plastic door liner??

Hello and We are glad to have you join us here and we look forward to reading of your adventures and experiences. I am sure you will enjoy the website and forums. Good luck, stay safe and keep us posted.
You should be able to pull the handle mechanism and lock solenoid out of the door without pulling the whole inner skin off. Sorry, I do not know the mfg. of the solenoid.
