If it's similar to this the knurl at the bottom unscrews. Need to use something to grip the knurl that will not allow slipping to unscrew it. There is most likely a nut under the knurl also. Maybe.

Sometimes for extra grip you need some non slip shelf liner.....
The kind you line the shelves with to stop plates from moving.
Or......rubber dot lined gloves, or even rubber dish cleaning gloves

In order for us to help, you need to provide pictures.
Most light bulbs in RVs......and theres tons of them.....are usually press fit, or maybe press and turn 1/4 turn.
