Front door latch pin(s)

[Jeremy Parrett]

After watching a very nice Dynasty owner break a window to get into his coach today,I wanted to know why the locksmith was unable to open the door.
It turns out there are 2 latch pins that the door locks onto.  These pins are designed to float freely up and down a couple of inches. If they seize up, the door can be impossible to open.
  Checking my Marquis front door (single) latch pin, I found out it was  seized solid.  After much tapping and lubricating with Penetrol I finally freed it up.  My front door now shuts with a nice click and i do not have to slam it anymore.  Who knew eh ?

Not the same thing, but I have an odd situation. When I  use the keyless entry, either via the keypad or the Fob, the entry door will lock, but it does not unlock.

There is power at the contacts (9-12v), when lock or unlock is called for. (The voltage range may be more of my inability to get a good reading holding the multimeter and the probes while standing on the step reaching for the contacts.) The bay doors lock/unlock.

I contacted trimarkcorp and the tech walked me through a couple of tests, but no solution.

Could it be a bad door switch? Why would it lock but not unlock - sticky?
