Question How to remove rear half of screen door

I need to remove the rear half of the screen door on my 2017 Interstate Grand Tour Ext.

Removing the sliding section is very easy but the rear section seems to be held in with fasteners and it is not clear where all the screws are for it.

Behind the screen is apparently where my controller is for the step. Either the controller is faulty or the magnetic sensor. If it is the sensor I need to get back in there to wire in a new one. If it is not the sensor then it is the controller. More on that here: https://www.airforums.com/forums/f24...ng-209941.html

I was hoping it too would easily lift off but I am not seeing an obvious way. So if anyone has any tips or could point me in the right direction for how to remove that screen, I would be very thankful.

Here are a couple of pictures. It is the fixed screen on the left that I need to remove. The controller I'm trying to get to is behind it (back side of the galley cabinets).

successfully removed

there were 4 screws holding it in place. Two on the bottom, outside side of the screen and two on top which screwed in from the inside of the vehicle. To reach them I needed to remove a piece of mouse fur trim which was very securely held in place by xmas tree fasteners.
