Just a thought on the solenoid: try soaking it with some WD-40 or similar.
You've nothing to lose, and you might just free up the button in the process.
Those old barrel-style solenoids actually were pretty darned tough and
durable! (And, if you're O/C about it, I think replacement rubber button
covers are still available from places like Holden in the UK.)
