The screeching you're hearing is either the assemblies binding on the hood (adjust hood position), or the rod-ends etc are badly in need of cleaning/lubrication. To lube, use standard lithium or general purpose grease. DO NOT use WD40 as it is for water displacement (hence 'WD'), not lube....

Easy peasy.
it def. has nothing to do with the hood in my case, from what i'm seeing, the arms that are connected to the headlight and the motor are a bit rusted, should i try to take those off to clean them?
