I had my Tz strip the wood and was not able to really get screws to grab w the normal methods.
What I did was just rotate the solenoid bracket a bit, and screw into fresh wood, worked fine, still does, location play.
If you did the same, you could just remove those screws and repair the holes.

Quoted from Marvin:

just fill the holes with toothpicks or bamboo skewers. that will fix the original holes

My go-to is the Q-tip shaft, I tried and it just kept stripping and coming loose again. Wood glue gets rock hard and takes too long on location.
Grabbing fresh wood worked well, and it's under the pf anyway.
At least I didn't go the route the op has to deal with.
