ping from headlight

when the right headlight of my 80 rx-7 goes down every other time, i hear a ping. something like a spring getting tweaked. what thought does anyone have? also, the rods are good and greased.

It IS a spring. Take off the Headlight cover
and see for yourself. Make sure the plastic ball joints
are all in working order, on both sides of the metal arms.
