If the solenoid were hanging up, I expect that the house battery lead would also have been hot.

Next, I attached the house battery lead, the solenoid activated and the trigger lead became hot. I'm thinking that the the current is passing between the house battery terminal and the trigger circuit internally.

I ordered a new one and will repost once installed.
