Tab 400 bedroom light panel fell off

Hi all— Recently on an outing we pulled into our site to discover that the panel that holds the reading lights in the bed area of our 2021 T@B 400 BD had fallen off the wall. It was kind of dangling by one side still connected to the wiring from the wall. The other the wiring had separated completely. It seems like a fairly easy fix to re-attach it, but we are very confused as to exactly how it is attached. The back of the light panel has two parallel strips of tiny nail holes, but on the wall there is only one support strip where that can attach. It has tiny finishing nails sticking out of it. No evidence of wood glue or any other way of fastening it to the wall. How has it even held on this long?! 
We contacted NuCamp to ask if there was something missing from our setup and how we should reattach it, and they told us to use finishing nails and wood glue. 
What do you all think? Is our setup missing something that should help keep the panel on the wall? We do a fair amount of driving off road to get to more remote campsites, and we would like it to stay put! Any insight or suggestions are appreciated.

    I am having a similar issue with something falling off the wall but mine is the shelf in our (2019) 320. No one seems to be responding here on the forum and I was really hoping that someone had an insight. I've done some research outside of this group and I think I'm going to try Titebond III Ultimate Wood Glue. It seems to be a product that can withstand temperature because we do live in the Midwest and because we store it outside, it can get pretty hot in there and then in the winter get pretty cold. We do have a lot of tiny nails and I don't see wood glue but I kind of see ghosting from wood glue, get me? I'll keep you posted and if you figure something out, please let me know. Thanks!
