Thanks, Gary! The solenoid seems to be working correctly now and we moved down to the east side of the Salton Sea to visit with friends from the northwest. Will head out tomorrow for the west side of Phoenix to see still other friends before heading south to Puerto Penasco, MX.

It was really disappointing to see how seemingly cheaply made that solenoid was on the inside. It was new just three years ago. The contactor plate was some kind of sheet metal with what appeared to be brass or copper flakes glued or sintered in a ring around the outside edge. The contact points themselves were apparently brass or copper, but that is all. Hardly the kind of mechanism one would expect to be able to transfer several hundred amps reliably year after year.
