Since there isn't a great way to take the step apart your best bet would be to keep trying spray lubes. Try spraying the components and then letting them sit for a while and repeat the process several times. Another option would be to take the step out of the hitch and let it soak in gear oil over night. Eventually it should start to work again unless it's damaged to the point of no repair. Which if this is the case you'd have to replace the step.
