I have found that lubrication and exercise are the best for this issue. Use so spray on lube and then make sure you put the lights up once a month.

Had the same issue couple of years ago - headlight on but a delay in popping up and then dropping down.

I took both headlight units out, checked and greased everything, reassembled then all fine. Just one small occasional plastic type 'squeek' when one of them rises. Doesn't bother me for now so have left it.
