Our Delta, Touch Control faucet quit working on touch - 2021

Our Delta, Addison Series, Touch Control-Pull down kitchen faucet (Down We chose a Stainless Steel Finish) has not been working properly. We have been using this for 10 years and it has been great. After some time recently the flow has slowed.  It did work great when we installed it. We tried taking it part for cleaning rtc but it did not help.   June 2021 - Currently in Paradise Village Marina in Banderas Bay Mexico (by Puerto Vallarta) 

 Then the touch stopped working. We found it to be the one-touch solenoid to be the problem. The fix is to remove the solenoid and reconnect the faucet. Easy in a house under the sink but we are on a boat of course. Debbie got it done (smaller hands) and smaller person so it way easier for Debbie to do.
So after some hours we (I did the testing) got it to work without the touch control. Works better now as the solenoid had been going for a while. The if viable now as they have changed them of course are expensive so we may just go with the regular flow.
