Default Passenger peg going limp

Hi all: one of my passenger pegs keeps dropping down as I ride. I replaced the spring washer but that did not help. I have not oiled it or used any kind of lubricant (that sounds funny).

So how do I fix this? Chris.

But if it stays up for more than 4 hours - watch out. Maybe that is the problem.
